We distribute the threads by color and knit like this:
- 4 complete rows with red thread;
- 4 rows of purple;
- 4 rows of yellow;
- 4 rows of white;
- We transfer 52 loops from the RP (working position) to the PNP (front non-working position) and knit further:
- 4 rows with red thread;
- 4 rows of purple.
We transfer another 52 loops from RP to PNP. We now have 104 loops in the PNP. We knit 4 more rows, this time with yellow thread.
We move all the loops into the RP and start knitting from full rows, but now we have a shift, and the first color will be white, then red, purple and yellow.
Let's continue knitting short rows, 8 more rows. The color will shift again for full rows. We knit the fabric 336 rows.
![Remove the fabric from the loops](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/555-snimaem-polotno-s-petel.jpg)
We remove the fabric from the loops and sew it on a machine, or connect it with a knitted seam.
![it turned out to be a skirt](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/556-poluchilas-yubochka.jpg)
We ended up with a skirt that flared downwards.
![lace 4 rows of scales](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/557-kruzhevo-4-ryada-cheshuek.jpg)
Now you need to tie 4 rows of scales to it with lace. In the same order of alternating colors as the main canvas. To do this, we collect a chain of air loops, equal in length to the bottom of the skirt, maybe a little longer. We close the chain and knit “scale” lace.
![Finishing the lace](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/558-zakanchivaem-kruzhevo.jpg)
We don’t finish the lace with the scales themselves, but knit another row above them.
![We tie it with red](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/559-obvyazyvaem-krasnoy.jpg)
We tie the narrow part of the skirt, that is, its top, with red thread in double crochets.
![Knitting one row](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/560-provyazav-odin-ryad.jpg)
Having knitted one row, we mark the side “seams” of the fabric with some thread or pins.
![we begin to knit a row of scales](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/561-nachinaem-vyazat-ryad-cheshuek.jpg)
Having retreated 3 cm from the intended line, we begin to knit a row of scales with red threads.
![knit a row with columns](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/562-provyazyvaem-ryad-stolbikami.jpg)
Above the red scales we knit a row with double crochets of the same color, and the next scales will be purple and... etc..
![We knit](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/563-provyazyvaem.jpg)
We knit 3 times 4 rows of scales, and knit hangers on top. To do this, we knit 12 loops from the edge line, three rows on each side.
![cut off all unnecessary threads](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/564-obrezaem-vse-nenuzhnye-niti.jpg)
From the wrong side, we cut off all unnecessary threads and hide them in the outer loops of the rows.
![We begin tying the armhole](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/565-nachinaem-obvyazku-proymy.jpg)
We begin tying the armhole and shoulders with red thread very tightly, using 2 dc with a common top. This will allow you to create a beautiful edging on the top.
![All that remains is to sew on our lace](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/566-ostalos-prishit-nashe-kruzhevo.jpg)
Now all that remains is to sew our lace to the hem of the skirt.
![we're catching up](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/567-primtyvaem.jpg)
To do this, we baste it to the bottom edge of the panel.
![Attaching on a typewriter](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/568-pristrachivaem-na-mashinke.jpg)
We attach it on the machine.
![a nice strip of holes remains](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/569-ostatsya-milaya-poloska-otverstiy.jpg)
The lace has a cute stripe of holes in the pattern at the top.They can be left untouched, or you can stretch a satin ribbon or thread.
![tie the buttons with red yarn](https://i.washerhouse.com/images/9/570-obvyazyvaem-pugovichki-krasnoy-pryazhey.jpg)
For fastening, we tie the buttons with red yarn. Starting with an open loop, which we then tighten. It is also called an amigurami loop. Leave a long end and then sew the buttons onto the back hangers. On the right, 2 buttons can be sewn tightly, but on the left, leave one to the neck so that the head can fit through.
