Bronte's Big Sister
Introducing the Bronte Big Sister Skirt: a stylish and versatile addition to your knitting repertoire, designed specifically for those knitters who have been yearning for a larger size of “Bronte’s Tiny Skirt.” Responding to popular demand, I created a skirt that features a completely different shape, combining a trendy, fitted silhouette with comfort and functionality. This sophisticated skirt still boasts an elastic waistband, ensuring a flattering fit without sacrificing ease of wear.
For a seamless finish, consider utilizing a provisional cast-on technique. This allows you the option to seam the skirt seamlessly with the Kitchener stitch, creating a beautifully clean edge that enhances the overall look. The border of the skirt is elegantly designed in moss stitch, adding texture and interest to this practical piece. As a passionate designer specializing in one-piece knitting with minimal seaming, I believe that knitting should be both enjoyable and rewarding.
The Bronte Big Sister Skirt showcases delightful triangular designs that can be knit in an array of vibrant contrasting colors for a playful, eye-catching effect, or in a single hue for a more classic, understated appeal. Don’t let concerns about the wrap and turn technique hold you back—Cat Bordhi offers excellent guidance on this method through her informative YouTube tutorials, making it easy for you to master!
