Skye Skirt and Skye Top when purchased together as a set ($14.50 USD)

Not only is Skye Skirt suitable for both warmer and colder days, you’ll also get the pattern for two different styles in one (H-line and A-line).

This pattern provides instructions suited to be used as a graded pattern (if meeting gauge) and as made to measure (if not meeting gauge). Pattern also includes a table to guide you through stitch count for increasing rows. So if you’re not meeting gauge and are using different yarn weight than recommended, you can still work through the pattern based on your starting stitch counts.

Suggested Yarn & Gauge:
Gauge for the pattern recommends a 3.5mm hook with fingering weight yarn for flowy finish of the skirt. However, the pattern can be used as a graded pattern (if meeting gauge) or as made to measure (MtM) (if not meeting gauge) or you prefer a more structured fit or thicker skirt.

Testers have used yarn ranging from lace to sport weight. Their finished objects and yarn information are included in the Tester Lookbook for you to use as a reference.
