Crochet Moss Stitch Mini Skirt

The moss stitch is one of my most favorite stitches. I really think it is a very beautiful stitch that provides a gorgeous texture well also being beginner friendly. Another thing that I really love about the moss stitch is that It works up very quickly. This is because the moss stitch is made with a * single crochet, chain 1, skip 1 * repeat. So, when I designed this moss stitch bralette, I really wanted to make a matching bottom. And this is why I designed his crochet mini skirt featuring moss stitch.

Crochet Waistband

Crochet Skirt

***Turn to work along sides of rows.

Row 1: Ch 1, 1 sc in side of  every row across.  Different yarns have different stretch capabilities so there may be different amount of rows to work into thus a different amount of stitches in row 1. Count how many stitches you have in row 1.

Row 2 & 3: Ch 1, turn, 1 sc in every st across while spreading out increases to reach 202 (212, 234, 258, 282) sc by the end of row 3, sl st in sc. Everyone potentially had a different amount sc in row 1 because different yarns will stretch differently in the ribbing.

 ***Switch to F Hook / 3.75 mm Hook.

Row 4: Ch 1, turn, *sc, ch 1, sk 1*, repeat *across, sl st in sc. The last st should be a ch 1 before sl st.

***Repeat row 4 until row 73 (74, 75, 75, 77) is complete for mini skirt OR until desired length. Fasten off.
