Trio Cargo Pants

Lots and lots of people have made and commented on these pants, so I'll try to be brief. These are the pants portion from a pattern called the Trio published by The Sewing Workshop (TSW).

I like them.

Signature detail on pants from The Sewing Workshop - flat front. Gotta like that!

And what's not to like? Some people say they have omitted the long deep pockets, claiming them to be not-useful. I wore mine for the first time today and used one of those darned cute pockets for my car key while I filled the tank. Just right.

And...the pockets are so much fun to make. I was scratching my head while trying to follow the instructions. I am a professional ripper so no big deal. BTW, did you know that the women working in the very early space program were called Computers. That was their job title - Computers. And guess what they did? Any way I've earned the job title Ripper. And I would have loved being a Computer.

The boxed corner construction on the pockets is quite clever.

These are loose-fitting, that is, big. The big part is not in my hip fluff area so really no problem. Since so many people went down a size in these (I did not), I am looking forward to trying on a smaller pair when I go to Kansas for Sew Kansas week after next.

I will be making more of these. I like that shape around the ankles.
