I made these out of linen blend and did size up 1 size. They are perfect!! TY Jalie - you never miss.

Je vais le réutiliser!

We use this pattern a lot for PJ pants and every day shorts. My daughter's love it. It's easy to sew, they make their own too. It's used so much my paper pattern we bought is falling apart. I'm going to need to repair it soon with tape.

I found the pocket openings were a bit small on the first pants I made in size R. But I just extended the height of the pocket pieces and the pocket facings on my second pants, so there would be room to catch the top of the pocket into the seam between the pants and the waistband, while leaving larger pocket openings. This worked and resulted in more accessible pockets that I can more easily get my grown up hands into before I put them into the washing machine.

In two weeks, I have used the pattern three times, in different sizes. I think it will be a favourite.

Using the projector file, I was able to easily compare sizes to a pair of pants I knew fit me well and I ended up with a great fit without any alterations. I like the rise on this pant and can see myself using it as a starting point to add style lines and details.
