knittingbansheeSo, as some of you may have noticed, I have fallen in love with patterns by Rebecca Page. You can find her work here.
My latest make from her patterns is the Paris Skirt. I made a size 3XL, with sewn-down pleats, somewhere between tea length and knee length. I could have done with a 4XL, but that would have been a bit too big, I think.
I made it in a lovely taffeta - only polyester, but seems very easy to care for. I have about half a metre left from the original purchase, and I bought a further 1.20m when I went back to the shop today (they are closing down at some point “soon”, so I thought I’d buy what was left of the roll!). Now I need to find a pattern for a top that can be made in woven fabric - the Paris top requires knitted fabric.
