Lunar Noonar Loops

It’s Renn Faire season! And if you live in a warmer climate like me, that means it’s gonna be hot and you’ll probably want to wear a flowy skirt. What better way to decorate your outfit to fit the times AND stay cool than to crochet this quick and easy skirt hike!

Skirt hikes were historically used for practical reasons, but they add a stylistic flair that goes great with the many layers used in Renaissance attire. If you choose to wear multiple skirts, this skirt hike can lift the top layer to expose the skirt below!

I’ve seen a ton of people wearing leather skirt hikes lately when looking up renn faire outfit inspiration, and I thought – “hey I can make this myself (¬ ₃ ͡¬) “.

This project is totally beginner friendly, and super quick to work up!

Row 40: add both split key rings halfway onto the strip, then fold the strip in half and line up your next row with the beginning ch row. sl st 4, joining the bottom and top of the strip together with each st. cut and weave ends.
