Bell Curve Skirt

If you need something to wear to all those holiday parties, look no further. This skirt is both sexy and comfortable to wear. Knit in the round from the waistband down, it is quick to knit with minimal finishing. The decorative star patterns separating the panels are extrapolated from the star stitch border, and sneakily hide the increases for a smooth line. The yarn has the perfect combination of body and stretch so that it skims your curves and moves with you, without clinging or sagging. The slight a-line with flared hem will look good on a wide variety of figures.
