Crochet Skirt - Rowan 36

I really, really love this skirt! I feel very triumphant about it because it was my first finished crochet project and when I told people I was making a skirt with motifs they all looked horrified - I could almost hear 'Granny Square Alert' sirens and expected the 'Anti-Doily SWAT Team' to leap from the bushes and take me away for my own safety. HOWEVER they were all amazed, full of compliments and madly jealous when I showed them my labour of love.
Well done Rowan for designing such a thing of beauty - my only gripe is that there was no chart and the written instructions were a little unclear in places (I found a chart for this motif in the Harmony Guide - 220 More Crochet Stitches, by the way).
Anyway, it's inspired me to design my own crochet skirts so I'm working on some ideas right now which will appear here in due course, so watch this space.
