Circle skirts were staples of ‘50s fashion, and we know you’ll love this versatile and feminine piece. Our free circle skirt pattern has the perfect vintage length, side seam pockets, a beautiful lapped zipper, and waistband with hook-and-bar closure. It’s a great beginner project, but also works great as an essential staple for more advanced sewists. (Who doesn’t need one in every color in their wardrobe?)
