New year, new start, new patterns...please welcome Angel Fish skirt!

What a difference moving a bit away from the west coast makes! Winters here are real, white, cold, and gray.... Looks like I have been on a quest to create colorful designs just to brighten the winter up!

Here is my new design, Angel Fish Skirt.

 

Skirts and dresses are what my little girl loves wearing the most. After creating Tropical Fish Skirt I thought it would be appropriate to keep with the theme of beautiful tropical lagoons, colorful fish, and unusual shapes for this particular skirt too. Here it is, Angel Fish Skirt, for my own and yours little singing and dancing fishes. 

The pattern is written for the worsted weight yarn; however you can use custom worksheet to use any other weight yarns.

The skirt is available as a stand alone pattern or a part of the Itty Bitty ebook in progress.

Sizes available and Yardage Info:

When choosing a size, please do not rely solely on age categories. Measure your child, and choose the appropriate size based on the actual waist measurement, then use custom worksheet to knit to the length you desire.

Note on skirt length: yarn behaves differently when knitted sideways; please make sure that you block your gauge sample slightly stretching it sideways to simulate wearing. You can also customize the skirt length by following a custom worksheet on pages 8-10.
