Hot Baby Pink Skirt!!

I really had fun making this skirt. Actually this is my "I can't study for my Teacher's Exam any more I'm going to crochet" skirt that I started in May and put the final touches (the last 5%) last month (October).

After seeing pyogazel's take on the VS knockoff skirt using the painted thread technique, I decided to make skirt in a similar fashion.

I used 3 strands of UKI size 5 mercerized cotton in Baby Pink, Med. Pink and Fuchsia in a simple pattern made up by yours truly with a ruffle bottom. The underskirt I use is actually a skirt that I purchased a few years ago and it blends perfectly with the crocheted skirt...just how kewl is that!!

That is so pretty. Maybe I can learn how to do that before summer so I'd have something gorgeous like that to wear!
