THIS IS A DIGITAL PDF SEWING PATTERN.
The Sporty Lounge Skirt is a relaxed style that emulates your favourite trackies (sweatpants if you're not Australian).
It's the perfect blend of sporty detail & lounge comfort &, with the right fabric, add a little bit of luxe.
PATTERN SPECS:
FEATURES:
FABRIC & TRIMS REQUIREMENTS: See the fabric & trim estimates here.
FIT: Although this is a knit style, it is not fitted. It has ease at both waistband & hip/seat. If you wish your skirt to be more fitted, size down. Just keep in mind that a skirt that is too tight through the hip/seat, will likely ride up as you walk.
WAISTBANDS: The waistband is pull-on style with elastic but it's anything but basic. The main tutorial guides you through sewing a fabulous tab front waistband complete with eyelets (or buttonholes), topstitching & drawstring. But if you prefer to keep it simple, choose the plain waistband that's quick & easy. It's your choice whether the skirt sits on your natural waist, lower waist or down low on your hips.
SILHOUETTE: The fall of this skirt is gently A-line. This flattering shape allows more of us to enjoy this style of skirt.
POCKETS: We have a trusty curved pocket with bound opening or expand your skills with a welt pocket. Both pocket bags are stitched to the front of the skirt to create a flush finish.
HEMLINE: The hemline is curved & slightly lower at the back. Choose from our 3 lengths or customize hem length easily to make it mini or midi length.
FABRIC: Stretch knit fabrics. Don't worry too much about how much stretch. This pattern is pretty versatile.
METRIC & IMPERIAL: Our tutorials are in both centimetres & inches. They include the seam allowance.
