Create your own comfortable everyday trousers with the Closet Core Patterns Pietra Pants + Shorts PDF Sewing Pattern. Designed to combine a polished high-waisted silhouette with the comfort of an elasticated waist, Pietra is a versatile sewing pattern for making handmade trousers, cropped pants and shorts.

The Pietra Pants feature a flat front waistband with a hidden elasticated back for a comfortable fit without compromising on style. The front lengthening panels create a flattering shape, while slanted hip pockets add a practical everyday detail. Choose from four leg variations, including wide-leg full length trousers, cropped wide-leg trousers, tapered trousers or gently flared shorts.

Designed for beginner sewists, the Pietra PDF sewing pattern is a great project for anyone looking to sew their own trousers. Choose structured fabrics such as linen, chambray or lightweight denim for a more tailored look, or softer drapey fabrics like viscose and Tencel for a relaxed, fluid finish.
