Sewing Notes: Capris
Jul. 20th, 2023 09:44 pmI have a pair of men's capris that I bought in 2011-2012, which makes them well over a decade old. They're super comfortable, fit really well, and the waist is adjustable enough that I've bee able to keep wearing them even though I have less hip than I did when I bought them pre-T. My most recent sewing project has been to create a pattern based on them so that I can make a replacement pair (or three) that DOESN'T have holes in the waistband and the pockets from where the hardware has finally worn through the cotton canvas.
Below the cut are some construction notes - not the steps, just the post-mortem on what I'd do differently, what I made them out of, and what I'm going to do with the next round (will add as I go/alter things):
