About the project / Tips:
This skirt is knitted top-down using stranded colorwork.
The pattern is first worked from three different charts, increasing stitches evenly on the final round of each. Repeat the last (fourth) chart to the desired length, then finish with an I-cord bind-off.

The skirt is easy to adjust to your own body, wishes and needs.
