Wool skirt

[BananaBonanza]

I live pretty much year round in these little jersey mini skirts that I pick up for a steal in h&m and primark. They are devillishly comfy, move when I need to move (child with SN) and are actually reasonably smart when needed.

What would really like though is a wool version for winter. Something like a simple warm wool knit thats just a little bit warmer but isn't solid and digs in when your wrestling an octopus helping DS. I cannot find anything. Happy quality skirt if it is perfect, but equally happy with acrylic too. Main thing is comfortable and smart. Im looking but I just can't find anything.

I used to wear ones like that a long time ago and with opaques tights they are very easy to wear. Mine were from M&S but about 20 yrs ago.
Have you tried searching online for tube skirts? I'd be surprised if you couldn't find one in main supermarket ranges, prim... etc

Watching with interest as I just need skirts but also want to buy stuff from h&m etc as on a tight budget!!

I still have the M&S one. I wonder if I could still wear it.
You could wear warmer tights if you are feeling the cold.
I think the patterned ones are good with a 'woolly' jumper and boots.
A knitted pinafore might work too.

I have a knitted pencil skirt from Winser London that lets Merino after my toddler, but is also smart enough for work.
I bought it last year, and wore it loads!
I am looking forward to wearing it again this year.

I bought a merino wool one from East online xxxxx

You'd think it would be easy to find but it seems not. I'm not seeing anything on all the usual suspects (M&s H&M etc). The odd wool skirt but more structured and not of the wiggle-able tube variety

Omg! That knitted pencil skirt from winser is absolutely perfect, but but about £40 more than what I could afford to pay for on even the most perfect skirt ever. Sigh. I have skirt envy.

Yeah I'm good on the warm tights. Primarks velvet lined leggings are perfect. So technically I don't really NEEED a wool skirt.... but if I'm out in near zero it would be nicer.

@JaceLancs Is there a link on the merino one? I couldn't find it

eBay is worth a rummage for this sort of hankering.

Try reserved.com , also Bershka have a pull on stretch cord skirt (knee length though) that might fit the bill

@thedevilinablackdress I've tried eBay but its hard to know what you've getting before you order on this. I bought something got the skirt and found it wasn't right at all. Would prefer something I could try on.

@Member a cord skirt might well work. Do you have a link? There's so many nice cord skirts I'm having trouble finding the right one

Woolovers have knitted pencil skirts and they are quite reasonably priced.

No help (unless you have one) but I used to nick my mum's black snood and wear it as a tube skirt! Early 90s, they might start selling them again!?

I just bought this in black, not quite a pencil skirt but I personally prefer slightly shorter to wear with flats. It’s perfect for work:

(apologises it’s a US link but they probably sell it in the U.K. too)

Just realised that’s a dead link, this is the skirt:
