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. See less

Always wanted a pair of edible panties? Been too embarrassed to buy them, or had no time for an extra shopping trip? Found the prices in those fancy boutiques were just too high? The clever knitter can make her own pair in a jiffy for very low dough! The supplies can be picked up on a regular Friday errand route -- chopsticks with the Chinese takeout, candy at the video store -- and no one will be the wiser! Enjoy your meal, then cast on at the beginning of the movie, and the panties will be ready for dessert after the credits! Like all fine lingerie, these panties are very delicate. Knit gently. If you need your L-string to last longer than a few hours before use, you will need to keep the panties moist. This can be accomplished by wrapping the panties in plastic, or for extended storage needs, spraying with a vegetable oil spray and then wrapping. See less
