In 11 sizes & any length

Whether you knit it long and lean or short and sweet, Carol Lansinger’s simple ribbed skirt is pressed out from hip to hemline for a smooth fit that skims the hips without clinging. Go to your closet to see what lengths work best on you­--we bet you won’t knit just one.

Skirt is worked entirely in K2/P2 ribbing from the hem to a neat elastic waistband. It’s worked in two pieces with invisible side seams for stability.
