I went to Hobby Lobby for the sole purpose of looking for this particular ruffled knit fabric. I went to the spot where I saw it last, but it was gone. Disappointed, I glanced around to see if I could find something similar when my eye caught the very thing I was looking for. It was in the discount bin! I picked it up to find that the entire remains of the bolt was $5. Yippee! I got two yards (regular $13.99 a yard) for $5! What a steal! They also had white so I snagged that too since it was the same price.
Here are my awesome $5 pair of pants.
It literally took me 30 minutes to make these. I deconstructed a pair of warm up pants and used them as a template. The hardest part was cutting, but it really wasn't that bad. There was no need to hem anything although I did make a waist band so I could feed elastic through to keep them up. The material is super stretchy so mistakes are hard to find. These might be my new favorite black pants/capris. They are SOOO comfortable.
