Question

CYA, I KNOW THAT A SKIRT MUST COVER THE ENTIRE KNEES INCLUDING WHILE STANDING SITTING WALKING ETC. I ALSO KNOW THAT SLITS ARE FORBIDDEN. BUT WHAT IF THE SLIP ONLY GOES TILL THE BOTTOM OF THE KNEE?

Answer

I assume you mean "slit goes to the bottom of the knee from the ankle up". You must be assuming that one is not required to cover below the knee. My father said, there is no difference below or above the knee. They should be covered and a slit is not allowed. CYA
