I have started working on Simplicity 3983, View 1 this week. I love the style and have wanted to sew it up since I saw Roobeedoo's version last year.The skirt is cut all in one piece with cutouts for the front pockets. As they're aren't any side seams, inserting the pockets correctly has become a bit of a feat of engineering for me. See this mess below?
It's not so bad, but I have to finish it off with a bit of handsewing to tuck in all the ends and to smooth out the bumps. I'm definitely cutting the pattern into pieces (front and back) for my next version!What are you working on this week?

Huh, interesting construction without the side seams. I'm imagining the pocket cutouts also kinda work as a dart? The purple is very pretty!
I'm currently knitting a hat for my stepdad, but I also just handed in my last presentation for the semester and now have today, most of tomorrow and all of Wednesday *free*! I'm thinking plaid Rooibos...?
