Shown in Tahki Donegal Tweed

Our skirt is reminiscent of iconic Irish country clothing in the handsomely rugged Tahki Donegal Tweed. A 100% pure wool yarn, Donegal Tweed is spun in Ireland with coordinating flecks and bits of wool, giving the fabric that signature tweedy look. Your skirt will be sturdy, naturally warm, and beautiful in this rich palette of neutrals, and earth, sky, and sea tones.

Gauge

Knitter's notes

For this skirt, the hips are the key to choosing a size that’s comfortable and allows ample cross-over coverage without pulling.

As you choose to round up or down, consider whether you prefer more or less ease (asymmetrical buttoning adds a little more A-line ease at the hip) and whether you like to see a little leg when you walk.
