Sizes

Sizes Available:

Sizes A-M

(see size chart in images)

If our sizes are too small to include you, we will grade our patterns up for you. Please get in touch with us here.

Cup sizes
Where cup sizes have not been stated it's because the pattern is dart-free and has been designed to be 'cup-size flexible'. If you're unsure about what size to use, you can always email your measurements to [email protected] for specific sizing advice.

Finished Garment Measurements:

See chart in images.

Selecting your size

Compare your Chest measurement to the Size chart above to select your base size. If your hip size is significantly larger than your chest size, you can blend between sizes.

Chest is measured at the fullest part of the chest which is commonly at nipple level.

Alterations in length can be easily made by shortening or lengthening at the hem.

It is always recommended to sew a toile/muslin before cutting in to your 'good' fabric.

We often get asked what height our patterns are drafted for

We don’t note this on our patterns because the body’s proportions can make an overall height very misleading.
For example, you might technically be the “same height” as the draft, but you might have proportionally longer legs. In that case, a pants pattern may be very short for you. We do not subscribe to the notion of “normal bodies” and that is why we provide finished garment measurements instead of drafting height.
For all patterns (not just ours!), we always recommend comparing the finished measurements (and measurements taken from the pattern itself) to your body. Use the shorten/lengthen lines to adjust as necessary.

 

Fabric & Notions

Suggested Fabric:

This pattern is designed for use with a wide variety of light-medium weight woven (non-stretch) fabrics. We suggest light-medium weight linen, cotton lawn, cotton poplin/shirting, silk noil, silk satin, sandwashed silk, charmeuse, crepe, crepe de chine, tencel, cupro, viscose/viscose blends, or rayon/rayon blends.

As with most garment sewing, we do not recommend the use of quilting cottons.

Fabric Yardage:

Sizes A-F
• 2.5m/2.7yds (150cm/60” wide)
• 3.1m/3.4yds (115cm/45” wide)

Sizes G-M
• 2.8m/3.1yds (150cm/60” wide)
• not suitable (115cm/45” wide)


If you’re using a patterned fabric with a repeat that you’d like to match, you may need more fabric than what is suggested above. Ensure your fabric is washed and pre-shrunk before cutting.

​Best lightweight cargo shorts I own!
Size: 34, Color: Black, Size: 34, Color: Black
These are my new go-to shorts for summer. The cotton material is breathable and feels great—you barely notice you're wearing them. I love the classic look and the practical design; the loose fit allows for maximum comfort and movement. All of the multi-pockets are sturdy and well-sewn, making them perfect for camping, fishing, or just relaxing. They hold up perfectly in the wash. Excellent value, fit, and utility

Online vs Instore
Size: 40, Color: #01khaki
As to be expected, not seeing and touching before purchase. I bought three pairs of these shorts in different colors for a trip to see my son graduate from his Army National guard AIT. I would rate the overall a five based on fit, quality, and comfort. One thing that I have to mark down, is they have elastic waist bands as described! In the description pic's, they are shown with nice long tie strings. The reality of what I received is the stings are too short to tie. They were almost the same circumference as the waist band, so only able to tie in a small knot, rather than a bow. no Biggy, until it's time for the restroom. Hopefully it's self explanitory....fumbling around with a knot! waist fits as stated to my size, but add weight of wallet and cell phone, and after a few steps, they begin to slide down. Tie string a must. I will see about finding something longer, as I do like them overall!
