I have tried this pattern several times, and I have never been happy with it. The pocket is constructed in such a way, that it is useless. The pocket is too shallow, and the opening makes it possible for things to easily fall out of the pockets. The waistband fits together awkwardly, and when finished does not lie well on the body. Unless the person constructing these breeches has a lot of experience with altering patterns I do not recommend using this pattern. It is definitely not for a beginner.
