Harem Pants?

Hello All, 

Does anyone know of a harem pant pattern that's size inclusive to plus size? I love the relaxed ones you can get from Yours, but want to make them myself but have only seen the ones with the very baggy crotch and I'm not keen on that look for my shape.

I can't think of a pattern off the top of my head and haven't seen anything on the fold line. The only thing that comes to mind that is similar is the Leo Dungarees from By Hand London as the trousers have the right sort of shape.

Simple Sew used to have a pattern but it looks like they don't do it any more

Ohh they look so comfy don't they. Thanks for thinking for me. I have seen the Style Arc Palermo knit pant, they look pretty good too but the crotch looked a little big, although I've just read some reviews to say it's not that baggy when you make them up. So that could be a good shout!

I'll put it in the Sunday digest email to see if anyone has any other suggestions

Have you found any Victoria? I have been making this Sandra BetzSanina pattern for about 20 years - out of print, but found this on Etsy. I can't share mine - the tissue has been messed about so much over the years (sorry, I didn't make my proper brown paper pattern properly before cutting!). Not sure if you'd be willing to risk this price. It definitely doesn't bag at the crotch. The 'frilly' ankle bit is odd - I've never made it - you can just gather the ankles. But my favourite is the one that you hitch up at the side - it just suits me. Last year, I wa stopped at a festival by a young couple to ask where I bought my trousers, and then - would I make some for them? I'm in my 70s!
