If you follow my blog, you have been forced to follow the story of my pants. Lucky you.
I pledged in April to make 5 pairs in 5 days, but the pattern proved problematic. I did finally finish all 5 pairs, and have been wearing them gleefully this month.
The truth is, I made 6 pairs, because the very first pair had to be taken apart completely and resewn from the beginning. I changed the pattern every time so the first/last pair fit just right, then went back to all the other pairs and updated all the changes so they all fit the same. Here they are:

5 Pants in 5 Months |
HOWEVER.....there is a curve ball: In the last 2 weeks, Dave and I started cycling some of the trails around Chilliwack. The setting is spectacular, but my cycling skills are not so it's pretty teetery, coasting-along style cycling. So imagine my surprise when I put some pants on this weekend and they are all too loose - like 2" too loose! Fortunately I somewhat anticipated my size changing and designed them to be altered along the side seams easily.
I'll just get right on that.
