Most knitted skirts I have encountered make me look like a stuffed sausage. So I set out to design a skirt that accentuates my curves, but hides the lumpy bumpy bits in between. This one is short and sassy, great with bare feet on the beach, or with wooly leggings and chunky boots. Plus, it twirls and sways when you move, in a way shorts just don’t.

I used Candy, a stretchy cotton yarn for the autumn version with #3,#4,and #5 needles.
I used Euroflax for the Summer version with #2, #3, and #4 needles.
