Special thanks to my mother-in-law, Laurie, for modelling Arden for us! She and I are currently living together and she has been a great help to Helen's Closet. In fact, she made all these samples herself as her second garment sewing project! Brava!

When we were designing Arden our goal was 'sweat pants meets trousers'. The perfect pants pattern for just about anything, from wrangling kids to working from home to walks on the beach! We have been wearing Arden pretty much every day since the pattern was finalized and we can't get enough.

View A of Arden is a high-rise elastic-waist pant with a classic hem that can be cuffed. Made in Tencel twill, this version of Arden could pass for trousers any day! We also LOVE this version in cotton jacquard. Paired here with a sneak peek of our next pattern, the Gilbert Top!

Views B and C of Arden really embody that 'woven joggers' look. They have the same fit as view A, but view B has a 3" wide topstitched cuff. View C has a smaller cuff that can be topstitched or left plain.

Arden can be made in a wide range of fabrics, from lightweight cotton, rayon or linen to medium-weight cotton twill or jacquard. For our denim pair we used a cotton/hemp blend and our green pair below is made in 7oz linen.

We know the Arden Pants pattern will be a great pant for all seasons! We've got some blog posts coming up to show you how to sew Arden in knit fabrics (for the full sweatpants experience) and how to hack Arden into shorts for summer, too!

We hope you enjoy Arden as much as we do! We can't wait to see what you make!
