Re: Design 22 high-rise wide leg sailor pants
I love the look of these pants, however I found that the instructions to place the plackets weren't easily understood. I felt the way the pattern wanted it done, added a lot more work than necessary.
All in all, I do still like them and I will make them again, but I will be changing how I do the waist, likely removing the plackets all together.
I did add knit to the waist, because as the instructions are written, they are pretty big without some kind of elastic, etc. Instead of using elastic, I simply made a tube using a stretchy knit and attached it to the inside of the waist. When I make another pair, I will be sure to include a casing for elastic when I cut the pattern out. These are wide leg, so I expected a bit of a larger garment, but these are considerably larger than I anticipated.
I'll be uploading pics this weekend and will add the link then.
