   The Palermo knit pant is a dream to make. It went together beautifully. I have made it in knit and linen. Needed to make the bottom leg in the linen a little wider due to lack of stretch .

   Love these pants. Really comfortable and flattering. They are perfect work from home wear and will also be fab in warmer weather. Only gripe is that the elastic waistband and cord are a faff.
   Jacket pattern on future makes hit list😊

   I enjoyed making these pants, they are like an updated more sophisticated hammer pant ( for those of you old enough to remember MC Hammer).
   I made mine out of silk bamboo knit. They feel great and I can’t wait to put the on after a day at work.
   The curved piece in the crutch is not as pronounced as in the line drawing .
   I recommend you try them

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
