Online Class The Eve Trousers

The Eve tutorial is as near as we can bring you to attending an actual course but at a fraction of the cost! Filled to the brim with detailed demonstration and dotted with intuitive pause points, the Eve Tutorial is your best friend when making the Eve Trouser.  Watch the trailer above for a taster.

The Eve Trouser is cropped, with a slightly tapered leg and optional turn ups. It’s an easy garment to make, fitting neatly at the waist and over the hips with a simple side zip and two back pockets. Choose to make pleats or darts into the waist seam.

During this tutorial Katie talks through various Eve samples. Katie is using 12oz Sanded Twill in Painter's Navy. We encourage you to purchase samples to ensure the cloth is exactly the weight and colour you’d like. Always pre-wash your cloth, to get rid of any shrinkage.

Once purchased you will be emailed a unique login to the Merchant & Mills PRIVATE VIEWING ROOM where you can view the full video at your leisure. You will be able to return there anytime to reiterate, refresh or review what you’ve learned. Please note you need to ‘checkout’ for this on its own, if you’d like to purchase cloth etc this needs to be done as a separate transaction.

Please note you receive the PDF for free as part of the course. If you would like the paper pattern you will need to add this to your basket separately. To add the Eve paper pattern you can find it here.

Fabric suggestions - The Eve Trousers are ideally suited to a mid-heavyweight cotton canvas, as this keeps the structured shape. Our 8oz and 12oz Organic Sanded Twills are ideal. Other options would be corduroy, light-medium weight woollens and 7 - 12oz denim. You can use lighter weight cloths like linen and potentially a Tencel/linen but this will give you a softer silhouette.
