Indigo Ripples Skirt

I finally finished this damn skirt. It was my first time working a lace pattern, therefore are a ton of mistakes. I've learned that I do not like knitting lace. I didn't know I was making mistakes until about 10 rows later, and there was no way I was going to rip it and start over! I got really frustrated and put my needles down for about 3 weeks. Finally I just made myself finish it so I could move on to the next project requiring the needles this skirt was on. So without further ado:

All in all, I really like this skirt, but would never knit it again. It's really comfortable and airy. I wore it out yesterday in 90 degree weather and felt fine in it.

Looks great to me :) No one would ever guess there's mistakes! Hey, thanks for the comment you left for me about your Intolerable Cruelty skirt - I appreciate it! I'll have to work that one into my lineup sometime soon :) Happy knitting!
