Two NEW Pant Patterns - Meet Margot and Robbie!

Margot Pant made up in White Wainscot and worn
with our Ruby Top made up in Hanky Black Jin
We are very excited to introduce our two latest patterns - the Margot Pant and Robbie Pant patterns. We've had both in the pattern-planning queue for a while but with the enormities that were our Sophie Top and Sophie Dress, they were unexpectedly delayed. And so because we think these patterns are perfect summer pants, we've decided to release them both while we're still enjoying warmer days. A girl's gotta have options, right?

First up, Margot Pant (above). This cropped pant pattern features an elasticised waist and full leg. Simple and comfortable, the design is finished to perfection with a clever side tie detail.



And then there's Robbie Pant (below). This pull-on cropped pant features an elasticised waist and straight legs with patch pockets. Comfortable and cool for summer, the Robbie Pant is perfect for travel in addition to being a quick and easy sew.


Ideal fabrics for both Margot and Robbie are wovens, including linen, lightweight wool, cottons, viscose and crepe (not suitable for knits of stretch wovens). Some suggestions are:


And both pant patterns look great when paired with our Ruby, Mandy, Valerie, Lola and Brigette top patterns. 

Hope you're as happy to see these two as we are!

    You've done it again :)

    But is there any chance you could go down a size smaller with your patterns? Unfortunately even XXS has been too big for me.

    Thanks

      Hi Spud,

      You can easily grade it down another size from the XXS, using the grade between the XXS and XS as your guide. It's worth a try :)

      Thanks, Colette.

      Yes, that's what I've been doing. Not sure how much effort it is for you to include additional (smaller and larger?) sizes - just a suggestion for the next pattern maybe :)

      Thanks again

      Spud.

    This was the best pattern I have sewed yet- I'm a newbie. In future though, please don't use whit fabric for your photographs! It makes it hard for novices like me to visualise the finished seams. But thanks it was awesome!!
