With its sleek silhouette and classic zigzag print, this gorgeous pencil skirt is a sophisticated nod to the sixties.
Add some vintage va-va-voom by pairing it with a classic black top, red lipstick and a pair of black-rimmed glasses, or embrace a more modern approach with the addition of a polka dot top and a pair of colourful, eye-catching ankle socks.
With its reinforced waistband, invisible zipper and subtle darts, this calf-length skirt can be crafted from light- to heavy-weight wool depending on your preference – we used this thick, soft wool blend from The Fabric Store for maximum cold-weather cosiness.
Download our free pattern (created especially for us by Pattern Runway) and pencil in some time on those long, dark evenings to make yourself one of these in every colour. Winter, we’re ready and waiting!

What our sewing community says
Here at Peppermint, we’re passionate about all things craft, creativity and community!
The strands of Peppermint’s DNA are bonded together with buttons and thread. Since our beginnings in 2008, sustainable fashion, either by brands that are working to bring change to the industry or those made by your own two hands, is at our cotton-loving core. We love the undeniable happiness that is woven through the maker community. It’s a tough old world out there at the moment, and anything that brings joy with a side of kindness and connection (and a new creative endeavour) is a good thing indeed. We ♡ our sewing community and hope you ♡ our sewing patterns!
