Start with five colors of lace-weight yarn. Combine three strands in different color combinations. Knit short rows side to side. Put it all together and you have a magical gradient skirt transitioning in vertical stripes around the body, in a flattering A-line shape. Choose monochromatic colors or go wild. The choice is yours and the possibilities are limitless!
