I’m afraid it’s all underwear around here at the moment! I’m in the middle of working on a couple of larger projects (an Edwardian-ish blouse and the prototype shoes), so these are little things than I can make when I don’t have time to get stuck in to something else.
These are made from the same block as the last pair, with a few alterations to the pattern. I slashed the front and back pieces from waist to hem, and spread the sections apart by an inch at each slash. This gave them a lot more volume at the leg, for a more skirt-like feel.
Once again the fabric’s a bit stiff, especially with the bound edges, and the waist is a little bit low, especially at the back. But they’re very comfortable under jeans, despite the width in the leg, so I want to use this pattern to make a silky pair and see how they come out.
