Pietra Pants Paper Pattern by Closet Core

Description

Pietra Pants and Shorts paper sewing pattern from Closet Core Patterns. Part of the Rome Collection, the Pietra Pants and Shorts are the best of both worlds: a flat front, high-waisted silhouette with the comfort of an elastic waist in the back. Featuring lengthening panels in the front with slanted hip pockets and a hidden waist stay, you’ll never want to take them off.

Choose between four leg styles: a wide leg in either a floor-skimming or cropped length (View A), a slim and tapered leg (View B), or gently flared shorts (View C).

Suggested fabrics: This pattern can be made with a variety of fabrics depending on the desired effect. For a more defined shape, use structured wovens such as linen, chambray, or lightweight denim or twill (heavyweight wovens may create too much volume at the elastic waist). For a swishy, glamorous look, use rayon challis, Tencel, or silk.
