Hey guys, I am Athena and today I am going to teach you how to take old sweatpants and turn it into a street ready skirt. In simple steps.

First you want take some slightly oversized sweatpants and and cut the legs to just below knee level.

Cut the inside of the pant leg

Sew together the pant legs on the INSIDES OF THE PANTS. If you do not know how to hand sow check out this link with a video on how to hand sew.

The last thing to do is to hem the skirt. To do that use a ruler and measure a half an inch around the entire skirt. Fold over at 1/2 and iron on fold. Then pin and do a simple stitch around the whole skirt.
