Video Tutorial: Pull-On Ponderosa Pants

Pull-On Ponderosa Pants by Allie Olson

I've got a new video up for you! In this one, I've hacked my Ponderosa Pants sewing pattern to become simple, fully elasticated, pull-on pants.

Then I got so excited, I made another pair. Both versions are made out of crinkle woven fabrics for a gauzy, relaxed silhouette. See how simple it is to modify the pattern to make your favorite comfy pull-on, pleatless pants.

You can use the table below to find out which size to sew for your pull-on Ponderosa Pants. Choose a size with a waist opening at least equal to or larger than you full hip measurement.
