Say goodbye to frustration with ill-fitting store-bought jeans, and hello to cosy-yet-alluring Simple Skinny Jeans.
Never sewn a pair of pants before? Not to worry, the pattern is deceptively easy. Thanks to the super-forgiving fit and a trick learned from my favourite post-maternity pants (a knit elastic waistband is everyone’s friend!) you won’t have to fret about fitting these jeans. With functioning patch pockets in the back and faux front pockets and fly, you can whip these up in a day.
