I think I see what you mean…

In the welt pocket construction steps the seam allowances of the welt/pocket bag seam are pressed towards the pocket bag (then held there when the sides of the pocket are closed)

Yet the trouser assembly picture does indeed seem to show this seam pressed open. (first image below).

I know very little about ironing, but I now know I’d happily go out for drinks with @ellenmcm ‘s mum and @sarvi ‘s husband! 😃

I would suspect they’re looking at the page size of a page OTHER than the last page. You shouldn’t need to do anything to that pattern sheet except print it as is.

Matching across the front and back crotch isn’t too hard, it’s the A line side seams that would be nasty to match.

Yep.

Yep.

This is my bread and butter! 🙂
Happily it may be the push I need to redo my all time favourite pattern mash in a new, bigger size. It was the back if the After School pants on modified front of the Field Trip. I made about five pairs in the end…

😃 @jwo until you’ve tried to intubate a rabbit, you know nothing of difficult airways!
I’d find all of that fascinating!

@jwo I’m very strong and good at carrying bags! 💪😃

@mmollett here’s a link to a blog post right here on Oliver + S where I’ve shown how to do a placket just like that one.
