MATERIALS: For this stunning knitted skirt pattern, you will need any DK weight yarn that allows you to achieve the specified gauge. The sample shown in the picture is skillfully knitted using one strand of Garnstudio Drops Baby Merino combined with one strand of Drops Kid Silk for added texture and style.

NEEDLES: You will need multiple sizes of US needles for this pattern: a US 2.5 / 3.0 mm circular needle, either 16 or 24 inches (40 or 60 cm), for the waist ribbing; a US 2.5 / 3.0 mm circular needle, 12 inches / 30 cm or DPNs for the ribbed section of the skirt; and finally, a US 4.0 / 3.5 mm circular needle, again 16 or 24 inches (40 or 60 cm), for crafting the main skirt body.
GAUGE: Achieving the correct gauge is essential for this pattern. Aim for 22 stitches x 26 rows = 4 x 4 inches / 10 x 10 cm in stockinette stitch using the larger size needles. Be sure to block your piece to ensure the perfect fit and drape.
