Pattern Description: Pants with back yoke, fly front zipper, hip and elasticised side pockets, elastic at the ankles.

Pattern Sizing:
80-128. I made a size 98.

Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes.

Were the instructions easy to follow?
Yes. But they didn't tell what pieces to interface so careful.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
I like the elastics at the ankles. I like the style and the fact that it keeps the cold outside in the fall and winter.

Fabric Used:
Camo cotton. It's a sturdy but soft outside fabric.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
I skipped the zipper and made a mock fly front and put an elastic in the backwaist.
The first time I made it without any changes and the back was gaping so I'd recomment putting an elastic there even if making it up with the zipper.
DD would like the hip pocket to be a bit deeper so I'll try not to forget about that if I make this up again.
front
back

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
This is actually my second time around with this pattern and I'm not excluding a third time. I definitely recommend it.

Conclusion:
Stylish and you know kids love pockets so this is a winner.
