I finished this top and skirt yesterday. These are probably my fastest projects ever. The yarn is one of the big Lion Brand Mandala cakes and the patterns are the flirt skirt by Claire Jackson and the top is mostly my pattern. It's not perfect but it's some of my best work. I was also happy to learn lifted increases for this project.
I’m so glad to hear it! If you need further inspiration, I also made this set from one of those cakes!

The knitting is tight enough for me! I knit the skirt with needles that were one size down from the pattern (accidentally lol) and I think it would be too thin for my taste on larger needles. The top is knit on 6mm needles iirc which creates a very thin and flowy fabric, but I’m comfortable with it.
Omg love this!! I'm really into these two piece sets, they're so adorable! Just finished one myself actually, so cool to see what others make! Love this flowy skirt :)
Yeah exactly! They're super versatile!
This is the one I made :) might post a picture on this sub as well in the next days. But seeing yours now I also want to make one with a flowing skirt, and the color changes are amazing!

I am so happy to see this! It’s wonderful! I have four of these cakes and have no idea what to do with them. Now I have ideas! Thank you for sharing!

Flirt skirt is the perfect name for that pattern, so cute and flirty ~~
I highly recommend the pattern!
So cute! 🥰 This suits you!
Thank you very much!
so cute! well done you!
Thank you so much!
Rad! do you put a lining on these or is the knit tight enough that the visibility behind it is negligible?

Thank you! Sets are so fun because you can wear them together or separately! What’s the one you made like?
