Cashmerette Club: Meet the Ashwood Pants, the Club pattern for January!


Meet this month’s Cashmerette Club pattern, the Ashwood Pants! These curve-friendly ponte pants are as comfortable as leggings with an elevated look. Join Cashmerette Club for as little as $9 a month to get this pattern.

We’ve taken the comfort of leggings and added a pinch of polish, and voila! The Ashwood Pants are elegant ponte pants with stylish princess seams and optional front slits, and of course, pockets. The Ashwood are fitted through the waist and hips and flare below the knees, with a yoga-style waistband for the ultimate in waist comfort. A super-speedy sew, you’ll be ready to hit the town in your secret pajamas in no time.

The Ashwood Pants pattern comes in sizes 0-32 and is available exclusively to Cashmerette Club members. Not a member yet? Join today for as little as $9 USD—cancel anytime.
