The So Cool sewing pattern allows you to create mid-rise pants with a fitted cut, hugging the body without constraint. Its flared leg from the knee gives it a decidedly ’70s look. The slanted front pockets, enhanced by a yoke, add character, while the back stands out with a waistband extension and elegant angled pockets

These pants are designed to be sewn in a non-stretch fabric. However, you can absolutely sew this model in a stretch fabric. Beyond 4% elastane, I advise you to size down your pattern by one size.
Depending on your body shape and your fabric, this model can fall very differently. As with all pants, take the time to sew a muslin before cutting your pretty fabric!
