The Grace Trousers Sewing Pattern
Design Features:
This trouser pattern is designed to be simple enough for a beginner. It's a simple trouser with an elasticated waist which has a ruffle detail above the waistband. It also has 2 waist ties that tie together at the front to add a simple, yet stylish detail. There are 2 side pockets which are hidden inside the trouser to give a smoother side silhouette.
Recommended Fabrics:
The trousers can be made in most fabrics but they will work well in fabrics that have a nice drape such as a crepe or a viscose. They also look lovely in linen.

Rachael - I found the pattern so easy to follow! There is a follow along video as well which was amazing to refer to. Lisa has made a brilliant pattern which can be adapted to shorts and made in different fabrics for different looks. I love these trousers they are so comfy.
