Ornament Skirt

Ornament Skirt is a modern twist and reinterpretation of the classic Christmas Skirt. It is part of our 2026 Christmas collection. Ornament Skirt features a decorative border of baubles hanging from spruce branches – just like on a decorated Christmas tree. It is worked entirely in the round and from the bottom up in stockinette stitch using 1 strand of either Merino or Pure Silk + 1 strand of Soft Silk Mohair held together throughout. The skirt is finished with a folded waistband that has an elastic inserted for a comfortable and flexible fit. The Fair Isle pattern is charted only, with details embroidered on afterwards. **Sizes:** 2 (4, 6, 8) years to fit waist circumference: 46-50 (48-52, 50-54, 52-56) cm [18-19¾ (19-20½, 19¾-21¼, 20½-22)]” **Finished measurement:** Length from waistband to edge: approx. 26 (31, 37, 41) cm [10¼ (12¼, 14½, 16¼)]” **Yarn:** 1 strand of Knitting for Olive Merino or Pure Silk (250 m [273 yd] / 50 g [1.8 oz]), 1 (1, 1, 2) balls in MC1, 1 (2, 2, 2) balls in MC2, 1 ball in CC1, 1 ball in CC2 and 1 ball in CC3 + 1 strand of Knitting for Olive Soft Silk Mohair (225 m [246 yd] / 25 g [0.9 oz]), lace-weight yarn, 1 (1, 2, 2) balls in MC1, 1 (2, 2, 2) balls in MC2, 1 ball in CC1, 1 ball in CC2 and 1 ball in CC3 Sample is in Merino + Soft Silk Mohair with Soft Blue and Bottle Green colorways for the background (MC1 and MC2) and ornaments in Pomegranate colorway (CC1) with embroidered details in Bark and Buttercup colorways (CC2 and CC3) **Needles:** 4 mm / US6 circular needle, or in size to obtain gauge **Gauge (after blocking):** 21 sts and 33 rows = 10 cm [4”] in st st with 4 mm / US6 needles **Notions:** Stitch markers, tapestry needle, row counter (optional), safety pin, elastic for the waistband (2.5 cm [1”] wide, see pattern instructions for suggested length)
