Yarn Recommendations and Tools
The author uses DROPS Alaska, which comprises 100% wool. This yarn will make your skirt soft and warm, just perfect for cooler months. Choose a darker color to add that homely fall touch to the skirt. For substitutes, select a yarn that offers the same gauge and is as easy to work with.
To make this crochet skirt, you will also need 3 mm and 5 mm crochet hooks. The back closure requires 2.5 cm buttons.
Techniques You’ll Learn
What really makes the Pouch Pocket Mini Skirt exciting is the mash-up of techniques it involves. It’s great for intermediate crocheters wanting to experiment with something fresh.
The spider stitch forms the body of the skirt, giving it a textured and fashionable look that differentiates it from the more basic crochet patterns. At the waistband and bottom edge, half double crochets create a clean wide ribbing. The garment finishes with a cozy pouch pocket that adds some functionality and style.
