The girl who loves to twirl and whirl will love the two ruffles in this berry sweet Strawberry Skirt with subtle berries created with eyelets and bobbles. An elastic waistband makes it comfortable for girls-on-the-go and knitters-on-the-go will love the clear directions for this in-the-round skirt and ruffles knit separately for extra portability. Make bobbles by turning your work or follow the directions for backwards knitting and add a new skill to your repertoire.
