Cycling in a skirt can be a treacherous undertaking, with the constant risk of tangles, tears and flashing your rear to all and sundry. The good people from Knits for Life, however, are loath to the thought of donning restrictive pant legs day after day, so they’ve come up with the notion of a sweet crocheted skirt guard.

Easily snapped onto your two-wheeler’s frame, it will not only save you from a wardrobe malfunction, but also make your trusty steed a wee bit spiffy. If you’re the lucky owner of a set of nimble fingers, the crochet pattern is up for grabs for just a few dollars online.
