Honestly, I don't care for this style at the moment. But these pants are not wasted – they'll be reworked as a straight leg pant. I would really like them in a corduroy for our brief winter. And those pockets are simply too good to ignore.
Undeterred, I'm about to cut out a True Bias Yari jumpsuit in Kaufman Essex linen, yard-dyed denim. I've enjoyed my espresso version so much.
And that's Monday! BTW, the pattern has a super fun skirt as well, it would be great with boots and a short chunky sweater or jeans jacket.
I tried those pants twice, and just couldn't get any success with them. I like your shortened version.
I've just made these same trousers in a rather dense linen and they are huge! I mean really wide and baggy legs.
The whole lot has been ripped out, including the overlocked seams and ready to be transformed into a skirt – I think…..I do love the pockets though.
I made that pants pattern several years ago as well — they were almost too roomy, but like you I loved the pockets. We got a much less brief cool/cold weather season here in New England, so I may follow your lead and make up another pair in some of the corduroy in my stash.
Each time I see a new post from you, Coco, I smile! This pants are a favorite of mine…I even have both size ranges…and have used them! Mt latest pair are in stretch denim and I love how they look on me… from the front anyway! Thank you for your always-wonderful posts.
I think they look lovely but we all know that photos are only half the story! I agree the pockets are great. So crisp.
This style looks great on you. I tried this pattern and while I love the beach look, it does not love me.
You are such a prolific sewer…I feel like a slug watching your "production!" Love these pants – especially those fabulous pockets!
I love your pants. They look wonderfully comfortable, perfect for the hot and humid weather we keep experiencing here in Florida. Plus, you have the perfect figure to wear them!
