Learn how to make a pair of pants without a pattern that are perfect for loungewear, pajamas, palazzo pants, or activewear/workout in this easy step by step beginner sewing project. You’ll use stretch knit fabric and I give you lots of detailed instructions on how to make them and how to sew with stretchy fabric so you can successfully make a pair of pants! These DIY pajama pants/lounge pants are very comfortable and the stretch fabric makes it easy to get a great fit, plus you don't need a zipper. Have fun sewing! CHECK OUT MY FAVORITE SEWING SUPPLIES HERE: https://www.amazon.com/shop/comicatcr... * ***** MATERIALS NEEDED: 1.5 or more yards of a stretch knit fabric (I used 1.5 yards of a soft jersey knit fabric that was 60” wide, but if yours is significantly narrower or if you are a much larger size, you may need more fabric) 3/4 inch wide elastic – enough to wrap around your waist A pair of stretch pants you like the fit of to use as a pattern Sewing machine: this is mine: https://amzn.to/2HcBk3b * Ball point needle: https://amzn.to/2GTcuqg * Thread: this is my favorite thread because it's strong and durable: https://amzn.to/3eCdCfa * Scissors: this is a great affordable set I've had for years: https://amzn.to/2NMnZBl * Pins and safety pin Tape measure (Optional) Walking foot: if your seams or hems turn out really wavy, try using a walking foot, which can help knit fabric sew much smoother.

No store bought pattern is needed so it’s a great sewing project for those of you who find it easier to sew without a pattern. No zipper is needed! ****Please note this project is designed for stretch fabric. If you try it with a NON stretch fabric, make sure you use a pair of NON stretch pajama pants with an elastic waist as the guide… if you use stretch pants as a guide for a non stretch fabric, or if you use pants that need a zipper, they won’t fit right with non stretch fabric.**** ****** MORE BEGINNER SEWING PROJECTS:    • Beginner Sewing Projects: Easy Clothing   SEWING 101: THE SEWING TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT YOU NEED:    • Sewing Basics: The Sewing Tools and E...   NON STRETCH FABRIC SEWING PROJECTS:    • Non-Stretch Fabric Sewing Tutorials |...   HOW TO MAKE A WRAP DRESS OR WRAP SKIRT PLAYLIST:    • How to Make Wrap Dresses & Skirts   ****** SOCIAL MEDIA/GET IN TOUCH: Email: comicatcreations@gmail.com Instagram: comicatcreations If you recreate any of my projects make sure to tag me or use the hashtag #comicatcreations on Instagram, or email me.
