Knitting For Olive | Christmas Morning Skirt Pattern & Yarn Pack
A festive favourite in the making, the Christmas Morning Skirt joins the Knitting for Olive 2025 Christmas collection as a playful, twirl-ready design. Around the hem, a delightful row of tiny gift motifs topped with i-cord bows brings a charming seasonal touch—sweet, whimsical, and perfect for holiday celebrations.
The skirt is worked from the bottom up in smooth stockinette stitch, using one strand of Merino or Pure Silk paired with Soft Silk Mohair for a soft, elegant fabric with just the right amount of drape. A folded waistband with encased elastic ensures a comfortable, flexible fit that moves easily with active little ones.
Our Christmas Morning Skirt Pattern & Yarn Pack includes your choice of 2 x Merino (MC) and 2 x Soft Silk Mohair (MC), CC1 and CC2 yarns in pre-selected colourways, and a digital pattern. This size is suitable for kids aged 2 years old. You may purchase more yarn separately if you are following a bigger pattern size.
