This high waisted pencil skirt was a really quick sew, especially using my serger. I sewed the the low waistband and mid calf length with the kick pleat in the back for my mom. I love the length & waistband options. Looking forward to making more!

High- waist Pencil Skirt. This is about the fastest sew I’ve done. I opted for the low rise with elastic and it was all finished under two hours. I sew it in size M instead of the usual size S because my knit fabric did not have the desired stretch. I installed the elastic in the waist band and it fitted perfect. I’m so in love with this pattern!
