Description

These pants, as suggested in the title, are quite large, very loose and swooshy. I didn’t have any specific purpose in mind when I made them, I just wanted a pair of really, really loose pants :) The end result, I think, is quite satisfactory.
The material is a cotton-poly sheet I got at Bed, Bath and Beyond; I liked the color and it turned out to be a nice shade for pants.
There is a simple elastic waist and a deep inverted pleat in the front, for a good line on the hips. Owing to the nature of these pants they do make me look a bit fat but that has never bothered me :)
These are one of my favorite things I’ve made so far.

As always they are also on my blog
