Peacock Skirt

peacock skirt, summer skirt, free crochet pattern, easy pattern for beginners

This is a free crochet pattern for Peacock Skirt with photo tutorial in each step to guide you in your crochet journey.

When I saw the peacock stitch of  My Picot website, I told myself that I will create a skirt out of this stitch. It will be a beautiful skirt for my daughter. But as I was crocheting using this peacock stitch, since it's summer, why not try to create an adult size cover up skirt instead. This will be a head turner. Love this peacock stitch. Thanks to My Picot for sharing this stitch.

If you are going to create a scarf or shawl out of this stitch, just make it wider and longer according to your need and follow the photo tutorial instruction in My Picot Peacock tutorial. 

This skirt is crocheted around from top down with multiple of 29 ( 8 sets).
