Another discussion on biking with a skirt on (and tagged with #solarpunksunday ) brought back a vague memory that my mom had a crocheted skirt guard in her bike when I was little.

So, after some pondering, I of course had to search online is there patterns for skirt guards, or was it just a fashion phase. Turns out there is.

@helenclayton @Maker_of_Things ...I think that was indeed the discussion that inspired me to look for these!

Apparently there's commercial plastic skirt guard nets available in some bike shops, but I leaned towards the cheerful creative options.
