Sewing: Lazy Circle Skirt

DSC_0166 DSC_0170

I was so lazy with this skirt. I made it over Thanksgiving because I had been dying for a full short skirt. The fabric is pretty interesting because it reflects different lighting differently so sometimes it looks super bright and sometimes it's almost black. It's a stretchy knit so I just threw on an elastic waist band and left it unhemmed. It doesn't fray or roll.

The color and length makes it a bit hard to wear. It doesn't really go with very much of my wardrobe. It was good for Christmas parties and stuff, though.
