LouBee Patterns Hosh Pants

Seriously y'all. Why did it take me so long to make these up?! You all told me how quick and awesome they are. I can be so stubborn sometimes...
These are, of course, the Hosh Pants from LouBee Patterns. They are a slim fit, one piece pant with a flat front waistband and buttonhole elastic in the back waist. I made these out of wool blend tweed suiting with a fuzzy nap. They're so cozy!
I couldn't be more thrilled with the fit in back. Myra has a bit of a ghetto booty, and I pretty much always have to raise the back waist of her pants, but these are perfect! And the buttonhole elastic through the back waist makes them totally adjustable.
The method the pattern uses to insert the elastic is really easy to do. No buttonholes to make! You just leave hemmed openings in the inner facing. It's very simple and effective.
Myra loves them, and I am thrilled at how quick, easy and stylish this pattern is. I'll be making it again!
