Elbe Textiles - Fremantle Pant
The Fremantle Pants are a mid rise pant with a comfortable, relaxed fit that taper in
slightly at the hem. They feature side and back pockets, an elasticated waistband with a drawstring and darts on the back for subtle shaping.
Suitable for intermediate sewers and above.
Sizes available: A to O (see size chart in images)
Finished Garment Measurements:
See chart in images.
Please note, these pants are designed to sit between the waist and hip and have a slight drop crotch.
If your hip measurement falls in a larger size group than your high hip/waistband measurement, it is recommended to cut the larger size as the pants are pull on (no zip or button openings). You can cut the elastic to the smaller size to compensate.
It is always recommended to sew a toile when first trying out the pattern.
