Cotton skirt

### Updated Knitting Pattern: Lace-Edging and Pleated Edging **Last Updated: January 2021** Exciting news for knitting enthusiasts! I have completely rewritten the lace-edging and pleated edging sections of this beloved pattern, allowing you to knit them seamlessly in one piece. This updated approach not only simplifies the process but also enhances the final design of your work. **Good News for 2019!** There is now a single, updated version of this knitting pattern available, specifically designed for my 2012 book, *A Handknit Romance*. This comprehensive pattern includes a handy chart for the intricate lace pattern, ensuring that you can easily follow along with each step. The design features a charming pleated hem panel and an elegant lace panel, both knitted sideways. Once completed, you’ll pick up the stitches on a circular needle, knitting upward to create a comfortable ribbed waistline that can be cinched in with a crochet tie for an adjustable fit. Plus, you have the flexibility to modify the length of the skirt to suit your personal style and preferences. Whether you’re a novice knitter or an experienced crafter, this pattern offers clear instructions and a beautiful finished piece that will impress everyone.
