The Arenite Pants are cozy, deep-pocketed, slouchy pants that you won't want to take off! There are three leg finishing options – a knit cuff, an elasticated woven cuff, or a dressier hem. These pants can also be made from knit fabrics, with two cuff options, for perfect, effortless loungewear. Skills developed: French seams, flat-felled seams, and a comfortable, non-twist elastic waistband. This pattern is suitable for confident beginners. It is the perfect project for those new to sewing pants or knits, as the fit is very forgiving.

Suggested Fabrics
View A is designed for woven fabrics, with the exception of the knit cuff option. For the main pant, look for rayon challis, tencel twill, or silk noil. The essential characteristic of the woven fabric is drape.
View B is designed for knit fabrics. Look for stable knits with a bit of drape such as interlock, sweatshirt fleece, or French terry.
