This pattern is from the book New England Knits which is available as an eBook.

This skirt has a delicate lace border that peeks out from under the edge, worked in a soft contrasting-color yarn that echoes the tweedy flecks of the main skirt. The herringbone stitch pattern adds structure and detail to the shape, and a row of buttons up the side creates a strong and slimming line.

Also available for sale.
