The Eve Trouser pattern- Merchant Mills

 

The Eve Trouser is cropped, with a slightly tapered leg and optional turn ups. It’s an easy garment to make, fitting neatly at the waist and over the hips with a simple side zip and two back pockets. Choose to make pleats or darts into the waist seam.

Skill level; Intermediate

All seam allowances are 1.5cm unless stated otherwise and are included in the pattern. This is a multi-size paper pattern in an envelope, including sizes 6 – 18.

The Eve Trousers are suitable for a wide range of fabrics so make it your own. Medium woven fabrics such as cotton twill, denim, corduroy, light to medium weight woolens, linen or tencel. Picking a thicker fabric like a canvas will give you a more structured shape, like the orange pair in our gallery.
