Early last spring, when I was in San Francisco, I saw some pants on the streets, and in the stores, that were new to me. They all had wide legs, elastic waists, and were made out of wide wale corduroy.

\"\"
Like all new fashions, it took me a bit to get used to this style, but when I did I couldn\u2019t help thinking they would be perfect for home wear in the Canadian fall and winter. I decided to look for something really snugly for dog-walking, sewing and cruising around the house. This corduroy<\/a> was perfect.

Luckily this year\u2019s new Jalie releases had two patterns that were just perfect for this most hygge (Swedish comfort and cozy living) project.<\/p>\r\n


First, the pants<\/strong>. I had made these in cotton when this pattern first came out and loved them. Wide legs, high waist, and the best inseam pocket technique of all time. I decided to jump off the style cliff and try them out in this wonderful corduroy. You can see my version above.<\/p>\r\n


This is the pattern, Jalie\u2019s Denyse pull-on woven pants and shorts, pattern #4347:

\"\"<\/a>

Note to reduce bulk in the pockets and waistband I a) slit the waistband in half horizontally, added seam allowances, and cut one in the corduroy and one in cotton b) cut the pocket bags out of cotton but added a strip of corduroy top stitched to the pocket opening edges to face them.<\/p>\r\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\r\n

\u00a0This pattern calls for wide, 2″ elastic and I found that it really needed to be topstitched down in rows to distribute the fullness. This shot, not the way I would wear these pants, shows how the waistband looks:<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/p>\r\n

For the top I decided to make a twin-set, so practical for layering using this super soft, cashmere feeling<\/a> knit.

For the shell underneath I used the short sleeve mock turtleneck view of the Monique top (the pattern, # 4345, also includes a loose dress with a V-neck that I might use to make a nightgown later).<\/p>\r\n

\"\"
\"\"

I then used pattern #4242 the Karine Raglan to make the cardigan.<\/p>\r\n

\"\"<\/p>\r\n

 <\/p>\r\n

The fabric was soft so I was of two minds about putting in the patch pockets in case they drooped. \u00a0I think I will add them. To keep the flow of the knit I also did not put in buttons and buttonholes and instead did these big snaps instead.

\"\"
In case the Hygge style isn’t what you are interested in for yourself here is the top and twinset tucked into more conventional pants, made from this fabric.<\/a><\/p>\r\n
