Pattern Notes: This skirt is knit flat in wedges and then each wedge is seamed to create the skirt. An i-cord bind off is worked around all wedges to create a neat edge, and the cast-on stitches are picked up and knit to create a funnel at the center of the skirt to hide pegs from the tree stand.

Techniques Used: Cables, Mattress stitch, I-cord bind off (tutorial provided), picking up stitches.
