I really really love these pants.. I think they would be so comfy for adults.

Oh and no.. I don't think I can make the childrens size and wear them like Oceanna did in her post.

(hope you don't mind me taking your ebay auction.. I figure at the very least I'm spamming it for you... but no one bid! I want that one!

)

Or if there is no pattern.. anyone know what these kinds of pants are called and where one can buy them IRL?? Or am I fooling myself into thinking they would be good for adults? *loL*

I thought someone had done a sew-along for them here once.

As a matter of fact, Oceanna did a sew along:

Doesn't seem tooo difficult...

Those are Thai wrap pants. They sell them at our local outdoor market and lots of import places around town. I have heard really good things about how comfy they are and seen them on adults and they look great.

...they are on my list of things to try at least once.

My mom has a pair she bought on her cruise to Jamaica-- they've got to be available somewhere lol. I took a tracing and upper the size when I made mine, but the sides are still a little slim (I show a bit too much leg if I start moving energetically lol) I need to try again 'cause they're really comfy

Coincidentally, I just came from my sewing room where I was working on a pair of adult wrap pants!

I just ran out of topstitching thread, so I'm on my way to the store in a minute to get more so I can finish them.

Do the pics in the sew along still work? They work for me, but someone said they weren't showing up any more. I took some pics along the way of making these, so I can upload 'em if needed. I should be done this afternoon. These are *really* easy to make & go together fast.

Cheryl, you could totally sew those yourself. I copied my friends wrap pants she had and made a pair, except I made them way too big. but they are really easy to make. I have yet to make another pair tho, it's something I want to accomplish before summer!~
