Circle Shorts Skort PDF Sewing Pattern
Circle Shorts Skort
This is no ordinary skirt because they are actually shorts! Making the skorts. This pair of shorts is made of 2 circle skirts. They are very full and fabulously full of movement. There is a 1 inch waistband and a side seam invisible zipper. These shorts are great out of any woven fabric.
Pattern sizing
This pattern comes in sizes 0-28 and you can find the size chart on the pattern or above. If you need help grading the pattern from size to size be sure to check out my tutorial on that below.
Printing the pattern
When it comes to printing the pattern, you have two options to choose from – the home printer version or the large format version. The home printer version is great for those who prefer the convenience of printing at home on standard size paper. Simply download the PDF file, ensure your printer settings are set to actual size, and print out the pattern. Your other option, the large format version is ideal for those who want to skip the taping of multiple sheets together. You can take the large format file to a local print shop or use an online printing service to have the pattern printed on a single large sheet. I like using PDFplotting.com.
Whichever version you choose, make sure to double-check that the scaling is correct before cutting into your fabric. Measure the test square. This will ensure that the pattern is being printed at the right size. Once you have your pattern printed, assembled (if necessary), and you are ready to start on your project.
This file is also a layered PDF so you can print just your size or print just a few sizes. You do not need to print all of the sizes.
You will get both print files with this download. The Letter/A4 version and the A0 large format version.
