  2. Badana says:

    I love this pattern, but I can’t seem to find a size or a way to increase it for a larger size. Can you help me out with this?

    Thank you!

  3. Mary Anne says:

    when you are talking about joining the motifs you say “So, you need to join 8 motifs together while crocheting the last round with sl st to ch-1 spaces. ” Are you supposed to slip stitch are the entire motif or just where you are joining it?

  4. Amanda says:

    Beautiful, but I need the UK-English version of the pattern please. I’m not familiar with the names of the stitches used in this pattern?

    Thank you.

  5. Donna Smith says:

    Jane,
    thank you so much for sharing this pattern. I absolutely love it. It’s so pretty. I cannot wait to make my own. I love so many of your items. You are a wonderful crocheter and your items are so feminine and beautiful. Thank you for sharing and thank you for answering all of the above comments though I cannot believe that so many did nothing but complain. Shame on you Ladies.

  6. Maria says:

    Hello Jane thank you for such a beautiful pattern, Do you do video tutorials I’d love to make this beautiful skirt I’m just a beginner I’ve only been crochet for a few month Iv learned from video tutorials Iv tried to follow patterns but with out success. And would love to see a tutorial of this skirt please.

  7. Nique says:

    You write that each motif is 4×4” or 11×11 cm.
    4”x4” is actually 10 x 10 cm. What is the correct width of your motif? Thank you!

  8. ann says:

    YOU have just the pattern I need .Need graph ,but will try without. Your pictures will help. thank you GOD BLESS

  9. Cheryl says:

    I did go to my local craft stores and all they had was white or black I’m using a warm tan color. I can’t find any colors online. What brand did you use and where did you purchase yours from?

  10. Melanie says:

    I love this skirt parttern. I just need a little help how many motifs are there all together. The pattern I know says eight at the top but I don’t see for the bottom set. I am sitting in the hospital with my son and am working on the motifs for the skirt and so maybe I am just not seeing it. Thanks for your help.

  11. Cynthia Rose says:

    Hi Jane,
    Thank you very much for this gorgeous pattern. It is absolutely stunning. I appreciate the hard work that you have done by putting this together for us. I’m going to
    make this for sure.
    Thanks
    Cynthia

  12. Illistine Banks says:

    Hello,

    I just received the Aliza Forever Lace yarn and I am eagerly looking forward to crocheting this skirt! Thanks so much for designing such a beautiful, sassy skirt!!

  13. beverleigh says:

    Hi Jane
    Would you know what is the equivant yarn to use in the uk. I cant seem to find anything simular to your 2ply lace yarn, I have just bought DMC cotton which is 2ply byt it has no wool in it.
    can you advise plese

  14. shantal says:

    I ordered the yarn from yarnstreet– a company in Latvia. It was super cheap (a little over a dollar per skein) and they took only 2 weeks to ship it all the way to new mexico!

    I started the skirt two days ago–wow! this yarn is so tiny!! Anyhow, I made my first square and it doesn’t lie flat– is this normal? Does it need to be blocked to make it flat, or am does that mean my gauge is just too uneven?

    Thanks so much for posting this– this is by far the nicest maxi pattern I’ve seen

  15. Nicole says:

    I am using knit picks curio, double strands. I just started but have a question. On the motif, you state at the end of round 2 to join with sl st top of ch-4 but then on

    Round 3: you say to sl st in ch-3 space
    How can I sl st in ch-3 space ? Do I turn my work?

  16. Trisha says:

    Super stupid question… did you sew fabric under the crochet part so it isn’t so “see through”?

  17. Klariska says:

    Hoi Jane
    I did my first motif , but it turned bigger dan 11cm its 18cmx18cm with hooknr 2. Only with synth yarn. Is that the ”problem” maybe?
    And 1 LOVE you’re skirts !!! So lovely
    Greetings Klariska from Nederland

  18. Meera says:

    Hi Jane! The measurement for the waist says 16 inches, is that right or is it supposed to be 32 inches?
    Also just need to know if you have blocked the piece after you finished work

    Thanks

  19. Mary L says:

    I found invisible elastic knit-in thread by Madeira–220 yd/200 m at Nancy’s Notions for $3.99. The only elastic thread I found at my local store was black Gutermann in 10 yd spools and I didn’t like how it looked. I haven’t gotten the thread yet–just ordered it so I can’t tell you how well it works but I ought I’d pass the info on anyway!

  20. Cristina says:

    Do you turn the piece around after every round, or you just keep going? Not talking about the squares, but the other motif.
    Thanks

  21. Marianne Jacobsen says:

    I just finished the eight motors but can’t Seem to figure out how to join them..?!
    Can anyone please help me🙏

  22. Sarah says:

    I’m also confused by the ‘add the elastic’. Did I miss a part that says what it is? Also, when you say ‘crochet it with your yarn’ do you mean using both the yarn and the elastic together at the same time?

    Thank you! I’m so excited to try this pattern.

  23. Melissa says:

    Hi Jane, beaautiful pattern,
    please tell me am I supposed to carry elastic thread throuhout all 6 rounds of waistband?

  24. Laura DiSimone says:

    Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for posting the instructions. I’m inspired to make myself one and will wear it with boots!!!

  25. Camille says:

    Round 4 of the motif repeats ch-4, sc in next ch-5, ch-4, sc in next ch-5. at the very end. is this correct? If I ch-4, sc in next ch-5 twice, it does not match the other corners.
