Tutorial: Girls knit circle skirt

If you have a little girl who loves the twirly of a skirt, make her a circle skirt! It’s an easy style of skirt to sew – no basting stitches, no pulling gathers – and they are the best for twirling!! Kim from Sweet Red Poppy shares a tutorial showing how. The hardest thing about a circle skirt is just the math to figure out how big to cut the circle for the waist, but she does that part for you with a handy chart showing the circle to cut for kids’ waist measurements 19″ – 27″.
