This top down lace midi skirt is composed of growing wedges beginning with a simple stockinette folder waistline and ribbing at the hips. Then a lace pattern begins, growing from (a multiple of 6) + 1 stitches at waist to (a multiple of 15) + 6 at the widest circumference before the hem is finished with a ruffle. The first 6 stitches of the wedge are repeated at the end of the round.

In Chart 2, you can add or reduce rounds to customize the length.
