   Lovely pants, just the style I was looking for. Made first pair in a viscose/linen twill, which was an ideal match for the pattern. I like how the waistband comes together — very simple yet with a nice, detailed look. Easing in the waistband took some finessing, as did the deep hem. Recommend pressing your hemlines after leg pieces are cut, to make final turning up and sewing a bit easier. Will definitely be making more pairs!

   Made these in a mid-weight pure Linen in a size 14 I did not make any adjustments to the pattern, it is true to size. I am 5’2″ and I love the length they can be worn with or without heels.
   Another successful pattern, thank you.

   I made these in linen, a straight size 10. The fit is perfect out of the packet with a deeper hem for my 160cm height. I made the channel and tie for the waistband, I stay stitched the channel 1cm from the edge before pressing the seam allowance under which made it easier to press evenly. This pants are very comfortable and they look great. They are a very worthy rival for the ‘Clarepants’

   Great pattern I have made it in linen and viscose. I didn’t make it with the tunnel for either. The viscose one I made with just gathers at the waist. Perfect length for me.

   This is really an easy pattern & the step-by-step instructions make it so. Right after I bought the pattern, I found a very similar version in a fashion magazine made in white linen. Linen would be a lovely fabric to work with on this pattern. However, I live in a very hot climate so I chose rayon which worked beautifully, but I should have always followed my own advice and basted more. The pattern is easy to follow and the outcome is magnificent: I would challenge anyone to think it ‘home made’–it is bespoke. I decided that I really didn’t need to baste when I joined the waist to the pants; bad decision on my part & it was operator error because ,of course, the challis shifted & I had to open the seam in a couple of places. And I hate using a seam ripper, especially on delicate fabric. A minute spent in basting always pays off & I know it. Basting held the pocket upper edge in place as well as the upper edge basted pleat until I was ready to attach the waistband. The suggestion to stitch on the seam making the pleat is excellent. I usually do a bar stitch to hold a pleat open, but because this is such a wide pleat, a bar at the bottom would be unsightly. Be sure to thread the tunnel before the waistband is attached to the pants because sewing the bit at the back so the string will not slid through needs to be done before the elastic is in & is just easier. Excellent and easy pattern.

How Do I Know What Size I Am?

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
