Maxi skirts

I do love maxi skirts... they hide all manner of sins and can we worn no matter what season! I've found a fantastic pattern on Sew Much Ado - what a cute blog name! but it's layered and I don't think that's what I'm after.

I've got some left over black knit material, its not crazy stretchy but would be great for a maxi skirt. Now I was thinking what type do I make, fitted waist band with gathering....fishtail... so many choices! While I was searching I came across this one which is from ASOS


Think this is perfect! I just now need to figure out how to make it fitted at the top and loose at the bottom.

I did want to take this away with me too!! Ha... better start cracking then ;)

I'll post again with a bit of a tutorial - otherwise I'll post a pic of the finished skirt and save the tutorial for when I return!
