It's Done!


A few months ago I decided I wanted to make myself a skirt. A friend of mine who is always wearing one rad skirt or another was participating in "National Skirt Week" or whatever, the idea being to celebrate the coming of spring by wearing a skirt every day for a week. I realized I was sadly lacking in the skirt department, and went pattern hunting on Ravelry (http://www.ravelry.com). I decided on Gallivant by Diana Foss (http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/gallivant). Great pattern! It's clever, simple, and way cool. I used Caron Country in the colors Foliage and Green Sheen.

So, it's done! It fits great and has a fun "swish" to it. I half wish I felt like making it a couple more times in Caron Country's other colors because it was really hard to choose green over the purple and teal shades! But green it is and I love it.
