Salt & Lace Alba Skirt

The Alba Skirt begins with a softly curved semicircle that gently flows downward into a distinctive teardrop-shaped point. This unusual silhouette gives the garment its graceful drape and a touch of drama while remaining light and wearable for summer days.

Crocheted in cotton yarn, the skirt features a rich textured stitch pattern created by combining clusters, chains, picots, and other decorative elements. These stitches build layered rows that cascade across the fabric, giving the skirt both depth and movement.

The skirt is worked in two panels — front and back — crocheted separately and then joined by hand sewing. The waistband is finished with rows of half double crochet and threaded with a drawstring that ends in two tassels, allowing for an adjustable fit.

Each stage of the pattern brings a new visual rhythm, making the process just as rewarding as the finished garment.
