What you need to know

Kim Kardashian's daughter was spotted wearing a silky mermaid tail last year, and it wasn't long before all manner of celebrities were replicating the look, from Miley Cyrus to Gwyneth Paltrow. Our knitted version by Karen Wiederhold uses a combination of knit and purl stitches to give the effect of scales – give it a whirl today with DK yarn!
