Free Skirt Pattern with Pockets

I remember having a skirt just like this one when I was little. Probably my favorite childhood skirt of all times. My mom made one in blue cotton for me and one for my sister. Those pockets were always full of tiny treasures from nature hunts 🙂 I think it’s time I sew one for myself, in a grown-up version. This pattern comes both in French and English – here.
