Cool, summery skirts knit in plant-based fibers are a traveler’s dream—light and packable, wrinkles diappear quickly, and they wash/dry in a snap. Not to mention versatility; a cool skirt goes from breakfast to beach to dinner and theater, combining with tops and accessories to suit any event. This shimmery beauty in ten sizes (XS to L and 1X to 6X) is no exception; with top-down construction, elastic waist, and a fun-to-knit stitch pattern, it’s easy to knit and wear. We love it so much we’re knitting one in wool for fall and winter! Designed to be paired with the Summershine Top as a 2-piece dress option.

Substituting yarn and/or needles may result in an overall variation in size, drape, and yardage requirement.
