Rika Pants Pattern
One pants pattern, two looks! The Rika Pants are a timeless and versatile design that can feel like tailored trousers or utilitarian workwear depending on your choice of details. Featuring a high rise sitting just below the natural waist, a three-piece waistband, angled front pockets, a fly front zipper, and a straight leg, Rika has you covered coming and going.
- View A is cropped and tailored with deep hem cuffs, a tabbed waistband, angled belt loops, and rounded back pockets with flaps.
- View B is full-length and utilitarian with a classic waistband, wide belt loops, and carpenter-style pockets in the back.
Customer Reviews
Beautiful pattern with unique pocket design! And as all core pattern patterns, the instructions are beautifully written out and so simple to follow!
Love this pattern - the style, sizing, instructions. Perfection! Oh Canada!
Very good pattern, nice fit, which gives a very flattering figure. Very happy with the result. My cousin, a former carpenter, told me right away they looked like "Compagnons' pants", the Compagnons here in France being a guild of highly skilled craftsmen with a lot of traditions (the ones who relbuilt Notre-Dame), so quite a compliment! The style is really authentic. Well done!
Love, love, love these trousers, enjoyed making them, the tutorial for inserting the fly was really helpful and to my surprise it really wasn't too hard at all. I will be making many more of these for years to come.
Easy alteration, very presentable in a finer fabric for an office setting (unfortunately without the carpenter pocket)
