Pattern drafting/Pants

On a long piece of paper about ( outseam + ( (4 " or 10.4 cm) ) ) long and ( seat + ( (6 " or 15.6 cm) ) ) wide, draw a line down the middle.


 * 1) Set up markers as follows :


 * 1) Square out from 17.
 * 2) The waist line form 8 is squared by line 8 - 10 until it is about 0.25 " (0.6 cm) below line 8 - 12 . Then it curves gently into 12.
 * 3) The fly fall (front rise) follows the straight line 8 - 10 and then makes a shallow curve into 5
 * 4) Through 11 the outseam is vertical from about 1 " (2.6 cm) above to 0.5 " (1.3 cm) below. Continue upward, curving into 12.
 * 5) Shape the leg, making the inseam and outseam vertical from the bottom to at least 2 " (5.2 cm) above 15 and 16 and identical to each other from the bottom to the knee.
 * 6) Above the knee the inseam is a natural continuation, waiting until almost the top to curve into 5.
 * 7) The outseam also continues naturally above 14, easing outward to meet the continuation downward from 11.
 * 8) Add notches (for assembly) at the following points: 0, 14 , 16 , 15 , and 13.
 * 9) In the outseam, 1.5 " (3.9 cm) below the waist edge, and again 6.25 " (16.25 cm) below that (for the front pockets).
 * 10) In the fly fall about 1.5 " (3.9 cm) to 2.5 " (6.5 cm) from the inseam: Put the zero end of the tape measure 3/8 " (.97 cm) below the waist edge and measure along the fly fall 1/4 " (0.6 cm) in from the pattern outline.
 * 11) Cut the fly notch at the nearest whole inch, and that will be the length of your pants zipper.
