The Helen Pencil Skirt

Introducing a beautifully crafted knit skirt pattern designed to be worked from the bottom up. This unique piece begins flat and is skillfully joined in the round at the top of a stylish slit. To maintain a clean and crisp appearance, the bottom of the skirt features an elegant stockinette stitch turned hem. The body of the skirt showcases a stunning all-over simple diamond brocade pattern, adding a touch of sophistication to your wardrobe.

The expertly designed silhouette is flattering and curvy, with decreases starting at the full-hip to elegantly narrow down to the waist. This thoughtful shaping ensures that the skirt accentuates your curves beautifully. The look is completed with a comfortable elastic waistband, meticulously encased in a hemmed stockinette stitch for durability and style.

The original sample of this stunning skirt is knit using two different yarns held together. The Andean Treasure provides exceptional structure, strength, and weight, while the luxurious Aloft adds richness and texture. The delightful halo of mohair creates a dreamy softness, causing the subtle diamond pattern to become slightly more obscure, enhancing its uniqueness. For those who prefer the convenience of working with single strand yarns, an alternative sample has also been successfully created using Rowan Kid Classic. This yarn provides a similar beautiful effect while simplifying the knitting process.

This versatile skirt pattern is perfect for fashion-forward knitters looking to create a standout piece for any occasion. Whether you choose the original two-yarn approach or opt for a single-yarn alternative, this skirt is sure to become a cherished addition to your wardrobe.
