My skirt selection in my closet is pretty sad. For some reason, I really don't like very many of them! So I decided to make a few knit pencil skirts that I could mix and match with.
There are loads of tutorials to choose from, but I really liked
There is just one seam in the back, elastic at the top, and a hem at the bottom.
30 mins top!
The trick is finding a nice knit that doesn't stretch out, and isn't see-through.
I made these before Christmas, and have worn them countless amount of times. They are so comfy, but look nice too. The only change I made from Mimi's tutorial was to change the width of the fabric rectangle. (Step 1) She uses her waist measurement and I used my hip measurement minus 1". I used a double needle for the hem and it looks and functions great!
Go check out her amazing tutorial.
This would be a great project for beginners.
These are totally cute. I want to copy you and make some!

Adore Mimi G - skirt looks fabulous on you!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! I don't think I can pull off knit pencil skirts on my short, full hips body, but I love the idea of such a simple project!
