Soléne Skirt
Soléne skirt captures the essence of summer—light as a breeze, soft as sun-warmed petals. The flowing shape and delicate lace give the skirt a light, graceful movement with every step. Whether worn barefoot in the grass or paired with your favorite summer shoes, Soléne skirt is made for moments that feel timeless. There is also a pattern for a matching top.
The skirt is knitted from the hem upwards, beginning with a beautifully scalloped edge. An easy-to-follow lace chart guides the creation of elegant lace panels, adding delicate detail to the design. The hem is wide and flowy, giving the skirt a graceful drape. Shaping is achieved with two sets of decreases, enhancing the fluid silhouette. The waist is finished with a neatly double-folded waistband and an I-cord ribbon. For a more secure and comfortable fit, an elastic band can be added.

Instruction on how to work the increases in the chart:
In the sample m1 is worked as you knit the “leg” in between the two stitches where the increase is done. That way the hole will be a bit smaller than when you do yarn overs, and the lace will be neater in my opinion. You can of course also do yarn overs if you prefer that method.
