2. (2 dc in next st, dc in next st) repeat around. Sl st to join. (36 dc)

Rounds 4-12 (or desired size):

1. Continue increasing in the pattern of (2 dc in one st, dc in the next X sts) where X increases by 1 in each round.
2. Add decorative elements such as chain loops or picots on the final round for added texture.

Final Steps:

1. Create a slit in the skirt by not joining the last round; this allows easy placement around the tree.
2. Use yarn ties or buttons to secure the edges together if desired.
