Step 1
A pleated skirt for a beginner is the most suitable option if the pleats are obtained due to the pattern. The skirt is knitted from two identical rectangular panels.
First, decide on the style and color of the product. You can bring a picture of the model you like to a specialized store and here the seller will always advise on the yarn needed for knitting and its amount, and also tell you the size of the knitting needles.
Step 2
Take measurements before starting work. You can build a drawing, according to which the number of loops is calculated, the length and width of the product are determined. For a skirt, it is enough to measure the waist circumference, hip circumference and solve the issue with the length.
Step 3
Cast on the calculated number of loops on the knitting needles and knit a "blind elastic" in a knit, then insert the elastic here. There will be a drawstring for the waist.

Knit in the chosen pattern. To get an imitation of folds, the pattern "4 front, 4 purl" is suitable.
Step 5
Knit with this knit to the required length and close the loops. Knit the second fabric in the same way.

Lightly iron the finished parts through a damp cloth, maintaining the volume of the pattern.
Step 8
Sew along the side seams with a matching plain thread or woolen thread. Sew not too tight so that the seam does not pull. It is advisable to iron the seams again.
