Ready to Sew Pio Pants

Buy the Pio Pants sewing pattern from Ready to Sew. The Pio Pants are relaxed and easy to wear elasticated waist pants with a slightly carrot shaped silhouette. They are designed to sit high on your natural waist above your belly button. There is a dart in the back waist for extra shaping and two deep front pockets. The finished length is just at the ankle bone but they look great rolled up too.

A matching children's version is available here.
