Q for someone who sews
I made a very simple skirt for myself out of knit fabric. It is an A-line skirt made from matching front and back pieces. I had several problems and think I have all but one figured out.
When the skirt is on me or a hanger the seams do not lay smoothly. I vaguely remember reading a lifetime ago when sewing with knits you start at wide end and sew to the narrow. Or should that be the opposite? 
I have no idea what I did as I wasn't paying attention. I finished the skirt before noticing the problem and just wore it as is out of desperation.  I've been trying to think it through and figure it out but I don't trust my thinking.  Help! I really need to make more skirts.
