Utopia Reversible Skirt
Utopia Reversible Skirt
Exceptionally wearable, definitely comfortable, and even reversible—the Utopia Reversible Skirt. Made with Blue Sky Fiber’s fabulous Woolstok wool, this skirt knits up beautifully and quite quickly. This project does require a provisional cast on to create the waistband and picks up stitches to create the bottom hem. If you’re a beginner and these are new techniques, I’ve created a video tutorial on my website (kraftling.ca) to assist.
