WHAT'S THE PATTERN ABOUT?
Make a pair of high rise elasticated waistband tiered culottes, with three sets of gathers for a wide leg which moves beautifully. The back waist includes ties to make a bow, helping to hug the waistline but also as a pretty detail on the back. Instructions are given for adjusting the leg length by adapting the inseam length . Sew these culottes in a light or medium weight fabric with a good drape that will move as you walk - we love our summery pair made in cotton double gauze, but we also quite fancy a pair in a lightweight denim Tencel fabric or a floaty silky version!
