The Presley Pleated Skirt by Made for Mermaids

Introducing the new Presley pleated skirt designed for knit fabrics!

Made for Mermaids' latest release, Presley, is also available as a kids' pattern. With three lengths, various waistband options, and the choice to add shorts, it's a versatile piece. I've long desired a knitted skirt like this, as most stores offer woven versions. For my version, I crafted the micro mini with shorts and a tall waistband using Rust-colored ponte fabric from ABC Fabric. It's super cute, and I feel ready to hit the tennis court! 🎾👗
