Cargo Pants

The Butterick 5022 cargo pants are done! Whew!

I used light pink (light weight) twill and I made a size 7 straight out of the envelope. I love them! The princess likes them, too.

Here is a closeup of the front pocket with the elastic casing. I love this little detail.

Here is the side cargo pocket, complete with rhinestone applique, double topstitching, and the grosgrain drawstring. The pattern called for making a self fabric drawstring, but yeah, I'm a little too lazy for that. Besides, the slightly darker pink ribbon with white running stitch just looks fancier.

Here's the back. It's pretty plain. I am definately going to make these again. The Princess also likes the little top included in the pattern so we're going to make that, too.
