The pants are finished! They are too tight to actually wear but the next pair will be great! I think if the fabric were a thicker material like stretch denim, I could use the pattern as is, but this light weight stretch tropical wool needs a little more ease. After wearing the pants for a while, I noticed wrinkling at the front crotch. My daughter says this is because the legs are too tight and they are riding up. Does anyone concur? I would love to just cut another pair with wider outseam allowances and have them fit.
Kathleen Fasnella's website has a tutorial which I think will explain the problem. I will post a link tomorrow. The waistband looks really good, and the fit is really close!
