Cargo Pocket Sew Along - added to downloads
Preface : I'll be showing 4 different styles of cargo pockets. I wasn't making a pair of pants so I have not shown the placement of the pockets on the pant. To sew them onto a pant - sew the outer leg seam of the pant pieces. Then sew the pocket in place on the side - around knee level or higher.
I have not shown how to make pocket flaps - if anyone needs that too - I can do it next week.
I have not followed a pattern for these pockets - so if you know of a better way to make them - please do share it....
I will be mentioning the starting size of the fabric piece I cut for the pockets.....you can use whatever size you need to go with the size pant you are making.
Finish the edges of the pocket however you normally do - I have not shown this.

Fold under the other three edges. Iron. Place the pocket on the pant at the desired place and sew the 3 edges in place.
