Meet the Madalyn Pants! These are the pants you’ll reach for every single day. They sit at a comfy mid-rise, stay snug at the waist, and relax through the hips and thighs into a wide leg.
Make them two ways:
- View A: full-length pants with a 29” inseam
- View B: shorts with a 4” inseam
Both views have deep side pockets (yes, real ones!), a wide comfy elastic waistband, two front drawstrings, and a split curved hem you can style playful or elevated.
The instructions walk you through every step with illustrations, plus how to adjust the rise and length so they fit you.
Fabric requirements
Cottons and linens work beautifully. Pick a fabric under 9 oz per square yard so the skinny drawstrings are easy to turn.
