Great design, very easy to adjust, and I loved the pants I ended up with. My one criticism is that the preview photos on this page don’t show the pants in their entirety. The upper half is completely hidden by the oversized shirt. It boggles me how the photographer thought these shots were okay. You can’t always trust the illustration so I had to look up other sewists’ photos of it on instagram to get a feel of what it could look like.

Good pattern for slightly balloon shaped pants, which turned out exactly as the illustration. However I was glad I had made pants before as the instructions were minimal.

This pattern is a joy as everyone has said. The pattern is easy to assemble. I liked the reminder to include the tailor tacks at the pockets because they do keep the pockets in place and prevent tearing. The pants are very quick to sew and the result is edgy and comfortable. I used the multi size pattern because I like to have the option of finishes on inside seams and some finishes need a bit more material in the seam allowance (ie French seams). I have made the pattern in two material: a midweight linen and a light linen look polyester. Both pants came out beautifully and hang well. This pattern will be another ‘go to’ when I need good looking pants in a hurry.

Great shape. I have searched for a good trouser pattern without much success – this is good. No great.

Super easy and quick. I thought I picked the right size based upon my measurements, but first pair turned out a little large. No worries though due to the multi size pattern! Re-measuring and starting a new pair today.

The Bob Woven Pant was my sewing project for July 4th. Been sewing for 40 years and I generally avoid making pants – sticking to tops, quilts, bags, etc. These turned out fantastic! Fortunately the pattern required no adjustments for me, which was the icing on the cake. This was easy to make up. I grabbed something from my stash to give it a try. Now I’m ready to head to the fabric store and make that 2nd pair out of a fabric I really love!

How Do I Know What Size I Am?
Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.
When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:
A. Shoulder Breadth
Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.
B. Upper Arm Girth
This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.
C. Bust
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.
D. Waist
This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.
E. Hip
This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
