These pants are a great cut and a great fit. Straight forward instructions. The slit pockets always scare me and they’re by far the most complicated aspect of this pattern. If you get out the measuring tape, they’re actually 1cm out of balance but when the pants are on you can’t really tell. All i can say is spend the time perfecting the pockets and the rest is a cinch.
I’ll definitely be making more of these pants. They’re a good staple and look excellent on.
The fabric is polyester suiting – a splurge at $20p/m, so the pants cost me $40.

Wow – pants scare the pants off of me!! (LOL!!) They just seem so darn hard – zip, pockets etc – I admire your bravery and your skill – I am impressed! Put that measuring tape away – 1 cm is very small in the scheme of things! (Even though, I know what you mean – things like that can do your head in!) You should be very proud.
