These were made using the Amerson pattern which amazingly is free! It's surprisingly easy to make, but the instructions are very simplified and they require a bit of common sense (of which I'm lacking) and relies on prior sewing knowledge/ familiarity with sewing patterns. For instance, the front and back piece have a large number 2 on it, I didn't realise until I cut the fabric that this meant cut 2 pieces!
I've made a few alterations from the original, the first pair pretty much follows the pattern exactly except I used an overlocker for the rolled hem instead of a sewing machine. For the second pair I took about 2/3 of an inch off the waist and gave the leg opening a slightly higher cut.
