Tutorial: Midi pencil skirt

Jess from The Sewing Rabbit shows how she makes a midi pencil skirt. It’s made from knit but she doesn’t rely on just the stretch of the fabric for the shaping. The side seams follow the curves of her hips, and she also gives it an extra curved seam at the back for a smoother fit. You can make one in less than an hour!
