Quantity:

A cozy, pull-on skirt in 8 sizes[1] (XS/S/M/L/1X/2X/3X/4X) worked in the round from waist to hem in widening panels. Knit in a combination of twisted rib and textured diagonals, the dramatic surface design takes advantage of the gently flared shape, ending just above the knee (or shorter if desired!). A neatly encased elastic waist provides a clean and comfortable finish at the top.

Shown in Kent DK Driftwood (light) and Stone Soup DK River Rock (Dark)

Wrap/Shawl shown in some modeled shots is the Ponte di Rialto, a collaboration with Romi Hill, knit in Better Breakfast Fingering (Milk & Honey)
