The skirt that’s so simple it is brilliant. I sometimes find skirts too fussy for my taste, so I created the most pared-down version of this garment–nothing less and nothing more than exactly what was needed. It has enough length to show some leg but also provides modest coverage, a generous hem to add luxe weight and body to the fabric, and just enough gathering to add fullness and movement at the hip but not become bulky at the waist. Deep, sleek inseam pockets provide plenty of room for storing odds and ends along with a place to keep your hands occupied (we all know how useful pockets are for those of us that need somewhere to put our hands!). This pattern includes our production method for inserting pockets–it can be a bit of a mind-bender, but once you've done it you'll have the cleanest, professional finished pocket and you will feel so proud!
