HIGH-WAISTED TROUSERS PATTERN

high waisted trousers

Beautifully designed pattern

It was well designed, everything lined up well, the instructions are clear, and it was easy to construct

Lovely trousers with nice details

Excellent pattern yet again from TAL! Made with 5 oz lightweight dark denim. Love the luxurious swish factor. The instructions for modifying the waist were much welcome. I'm 177 cm tall, so lengthened legs by 2.5 inches and shortened rise by 1" (otherwise the waistband would have been at my ribcage!). The symbols used for buttons and buttonholes are not intuitive but I finally figured it out. Still mistakenly overlocked the incorrect side of the inner waistband (oops!) I could not make buttonholes with the automatic buttonhole feature because the straps were too close to the side seams and the buttonhole foot could not deal with the very slight bulk in that area. I mangled one buttonhole and made the second one manually using machine zig-zag stitch.
