Boys Ottobre Trousers


Well, I have finished the pants for Mr Mischevious and I couldn't be more pleased. The pattern was such a simple one - no fly front, just elastic. The feature of these pants is the pockets which are everywhere on them - 5 on the front, 2 on the back. (Please excuse the smeary fingerprint on the photo's).


These are from the Spring 09 Ottobre Design and there are 3 versions of the same basic pants pattern. I already have another one cut out and ready to sew!

I added a monster trim to the side of them which was from Farbenmix Germany. I purchased this one, and several others on TradeMe (New Zealands version of Ebay) and I must confess that I went a little bit overboard. There were so many gorgeous ribbons that I couldn't decide so got heaps of them. I will post a photo shortly because they really are divine.

  1. I love the pants! And the ribbon detail is a great idea too. I have always eyed them but maybe I should just go buy them.

  2. Wow, I love these! I'm always looking for ways to "spice up" my boy items. This idea is great. Your pants turned out perfect!
