    easily be lengthened or shortened if
    desired (see instructions). Skirt is also
    intended to be close-fitting at the hips
    with a waistband that can accommodate
    a variety of waists and
    allows it to slip on over
    the hips; therefore, choose
    your size based on the hip
    measurement. If waist is
    too loose for the intended
    wearer, use a smaller nee-
    dle for the ribbing or sim-
    ply add elastic at the waist
    to help pull it in further.
    Edge sts are added to
    ensure that pat reps will be unbroken
    once assembled and were not included
    in calculating hip sizes.
