In Paris, the Pont des Arts Bridge crosses the Seine River; it was featured in the last episode of Sex and the City and is now a popular place for lovers. Inspired by an unbelievably luxurious yarn, I’ve created a slim-fitting pencil skirt which sits stylishly high on the waist and is punctuated with horizontal purl stripes. Worked from the top down in one seamless piece, you’ll be ready for a romantic stroll over the river in no time flat!
