The Eiffel Tower skirt is special for several reasons… Firstly, it’s commonly known that we, modern time women, rarely wear long winter skirts; or skirts at all in winter time. Summer skirts are abundant, and it’s absolutely great that dresses and skirts have come back into fashion making women feminine again, but you’ll hardly find a thick winter skirt in shops these days. However, in the last couple of years there have been an increase of knitted skirts that you can wear in very cold weather (or if you’re just as sensitive to any coldish weather like me). Secondly, we are all somehow wrapped in black or grey – hardly ever can you spot city dwellers in bright colors during the winter. This melange texture that I chose kind of enriches the grayness of town quarters when we have very little sunshine. And finally, and most important;y for me, is that this garment is a real big challenge for experienced and skillful knitters.
