Yoga Skirt Sihlouette 2010
Fabric: 1.2 m blue cotton rayon lycra knit
Notions: thread, and 33 inches of 1 1/2" elastic
Pattern Silhouette Yoga Skirt 2010
Pattern Description:
3 pattern piece slightly A line skirt for knits, with wide enclosed elastic waistband
Pattern Sizing:
Includes child sizes 8 to 18, and Ladies sizes 1-8, Size chosen for pattern are based on finished measurements of favourite garments.
Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Absolutely!
Were the instructions easy to follow?
Very easy. This is a serious doll clothes garment.
What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Super easy pattern.
I found that I did not use the correct size because my hip drop was slightly less than the pattern, so with shortening, pattern was perfect. I ended up shortening the pattern at the waist by 1" to get the correct size and shape.
Fabric Used:
Very light weight Rayon Cotton Lycra knit. This is a lovely clingy fabric.
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I shortened the pattern to my preferred knee length. I also widened the waist based on my own measurements, which are between the size 3 and 4 Ladies.
Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Well, I made two of them, and plan on making more, so yes.
Conclusion:
This one is a keeper. I'm trying to make a series of clothing based on easy wear, easy care clothing shapes. I recommend this pattern highly.
