Whether made in knit or woven, the Arenite Pants blend cozy and chic, for a piece that can slip into any wardrobe, perfect for styling with tees, sweaters, and jackets, for relaxing at home, running errands, or dressed up for evenings out. They’re our new favorite pants, and we hope they’ll be yours too!

Learn to sew French seams, flat-felled seams and a comfortable, non-twist elastic waistband for a made-to-last, beautifully crafted wardrobe staple. This pattern is suitable for advanced beginners. It is the perfect project for those new to sewing pants or knits, as the fit is very forgiving.

The Arenite Pant View A is designed for woven fabrics, with the exception of the knit cuff option. For the main pant, look for rayon challis, tencel twill, or silk noil. The essential characteristic of the woven fabric is fantastic drape.

View B is designed for knit fabrics. Look for stable knits with a bit of drape such as Interlock, sweatshirt fleece, or french terry.

Your Measurements

The pattern is drafted for a height of 5’5”. The waistband sits about 1” below the natural waist, and the hem falls to the ankle bone. Find your closest size on the chart below – your hip measurement is key, as the waist can be adjusted to fit snugly with your elastic waistband. However, if your waist measurement is larger than your hip measurement, go with your waist measurement.
