I designed this classic skirt to be reversible to make it a more functional part of any wardrobe. Knit in one seamless piece, I decided to use a yarn with a little stretch to it while also soft and luxurious. Dream in Color Perfectly Posh Sport yarn is wonderful fit for this project. You can use any sport or DK yarn, preferably superwash wool for easy care.
Knitted from the top down, this skirt’s unique design allows you to wear it on either side. The skirt is designed to have a negative 2 inches of ease and to sit lower at the waist.
