The Shakti Pants are amazing! The pattern drafting is spot on, a given with any Designer Stitch pattern, and the options that are available with this pattern make this a year round tried-and-true pattern for me. Mixing up the styles with different fabrics take this pattern from casual to dressed up so there will definitely be more than one of these in my closet! Thanks for another great pattern!

The Shakti pants are on trend, and can be dressed up or down!
I love this pattern so much and will be making several more. It is a fun and easy sew. Easy to follow instructions with a stunning result. I made the bell bottoms with ruched yoga waistband and bell bottoms with yoga waistband. I can’t wait to try the ruched side option. I can see these pants (all options) filling up my wardrobe! Thanks for such a wonderful pants pattern!

Shakti pants pattern is an easy and fast project to sew. With 4 leg options and different waistbands to choose from, I’ll make quite a few for myself. Comfy and stylish, I can’t wait to sew all the styles (bell bottom and straight leg are done)!

I made the Bell Version of the Shakti Pants with no pockets (I know … I’m crazy) and it was SUCH a quick sewing project. I literally made a pair for work, before leaving for work. My hubby was like, “did you just make those? in one sitting?” Well, yes, I did! They’re comfy and the instructions are easy to follow! I made my pair with ponte for a nice, work-appropriate pair of pants and it feels like I’m wearing yoga pants. Comfy and stylish = a win!

This was my first Designer Stitch patter. Those side ties are the cutest! It fit me spot on from the first try. I didn’t have to make any adjustments. If you are using very stretchy fabrics like rayon and the types, I recommend sizing down.
