A delicate floral skirt featuring floral motifs, worked seamlessly in the round with an optional flared or straight silhouette.

The Florence Skirt is worked seamlessly from the lower edge upward in the round and features an all-over floral lace motif that opens beautifully after blocking.

The skirt may be worked in either a flared or straight silhouette before transitioning into a shared body section and folded elastic waistband.

Designed to feel lightweight,and softly romantic, the Florence Skirt pairs delicate lace texture with clean construction details and an easy wearable shape.

The red sample shown is worked in the flared silhouette.
The white sample shown is worked with wool (note: gauge differs slightly; lace behaviour differs with wool)

Matching blouse is available on Ravelry in a bundle
