QUILTED SKIRT

Noro Knitting Magazine Fall/Winter 2013 #28

Design by Carolyn Noyes

To create the structured quilted- look fabric of her A-line skirt, Noyes stripes a cross-stitch pattern in two rows each of Noro Kureyon #242 and cranberry-shaded Elle Rae Lace Merino Worsted. The skirt, which sits at the natural waist, is worked in the round to the zippered side opening. The ruffled edging is knit in a twisted edge pattern using two strands of Lace Merino Worsted.
