Description
This is a PDF sewing pattern and tutorial to teach you how to create these garments. YOU WILL NOT RECIEVE ANYTHING IN THE MAIL.
The Sugar Maple Skirt is an a-line skirt with a full circle drop yoke. It is designed to be worn at the natural waist and comes in four lengths: mini, knee, tea and maxi. The top yoke has a body skimming silhouette, while the fuller part of the skirt joins just below the booty. Whichever length you choose, each provides for ALL the swishy, twirly goodness that you could hope for in a skirt.
The Sugar Maple is a great basic skirt pattern to have, an excellent sewing project for beginners, and it comes together so quickly that you’ll end up making multiple before you even know what happened! You can use this pattern to create something casual, fun, modest, dressy, and everything in between. The simple construction of the knit yoga style waistband is geared for comfort in wearing and the different lengths provide opportunity for any style you’re after.
The Sugar Maple Skirt is drafted for knit fabrics with at least 30% stretch. Practically any light-to-medium weight knits will work. Think: jersey knits, rayon/spandex blends, scuba, liverpool, dbp, “yummy” ribbed knits, etc. The waistband will need at least a 50% stretch horizontally, and requires good recovery. Look for a spandex/lycra content of 5% or more for your waistband. The higher the spandex content, harder your waistband will work to keep your skirt in place.
Here is a round up blog post and album full of photos to look through!
