Welcome to the wonderful world of sewing! This pattern is designed to guide you through all the steps of assembling an easy-to-sew pattern into a trouser.

The Pull-on trousers have a normal waist and wide, full-length legs. The waistband, which is a regular elastic band, simplifies the fit and makes them well-cut on many. You can choose to sew them with or without pockets and a side stripe.

The pattern is divided into three different variants, so you can develop your sewing skills as you get more experienced if you are a complete beginner. Starting with the easiest possible trouser (Trouser No 1 – with no pocket or side strip) and adding a pocket (Trouser No 2 – with pocket) and finally adding a side strip (Trouser No 3 - with pocket & side strip). For even more effect you can use a deviant-coloured fabric for your side stripe. 

Sizing: The pattern includes women’s sizes XS–3XL as well as men’s sizes S–XL, which are drafted as separate pattern pieces and constructed specifically for the male body.

The Pull on trousers MINI are the children’s version of the same design. The pattern includes sizes for ages 5–6, 7–8, 9–10, and 11–12 years. The MINI pattern also includes instructions for adding elastic cuffs at the hem.

Please note: Your body seat measurement cannot be wider than the waistband elastic extended measurement in the table below, which is the same width as the waistband. If you want to adjust the relaxed waist you can choose to add more or less elastic tape.
