In a way, Waralee is just a waist band with a long piece of fabric attached. The waist band needs to continue from the fabric into two strings of fabric that are used to tie the pants in the front and two in the back. These strings are not included in the pattern. Traditionally, they are of similar length. You can make longer ones for the front panel (the side that is a little shorter than the other, on the left in the illustrations below), to allow you to tie both sets in the front. I prefer this as it is easier to tie, and you don't have the bulk of the knot in the back.
Traditionally, these types of pants do not have pockets. Pero quiero poner mi teléfono, llaves y monedero en algún lugar. Así que he incluido bolsillos en el patrón. Usted puede decidir por sí mismo si lo desea en sus pantalones.
Las ilustraciones en los siguientes pasos muestran los pantalones de Waralee sin bolsillos. Sólo se muestran las colocaciones de los bolsillos del patrón, para ayudarte a orientarte a ti mismo.
I included placements for the front pockets that will be hidden by the flaps in the front. But they will still be easily accessible to put your phone or keys in. These are single welt pockets. The ones in the front are at an angle and the ones in the back are horizontally oriented. The pocket templates should allow for enough fabric to attach the pocket to the waistband. If you want particularly deep pockets, please adjust accordingly.
You can use whatever method works best for you. In the version I first made I just serged the sides, folded them back and top stitched them, then did the same for the bottom. I did this to keep the bulk of the fabric to a minimum and allow for a better drape. What you do should depend on the type of fabric you're using.

### Step 3: Sew the two pants parts together at the crotch
For example, if my waist circumference is 84.6cm: 84.6cm divided by 4 is 21.2cm. 21.2cm plus 40cm is 61.2cm. 61.2cm plus my seam allowance of 1cm is 62.2cm. I will cut four strips of fabric that are 62.2cm by 5cm.
When generating your pattern, one of the style options is called “Waist Band”. The strings, when folded, should have the same width as you specified for that option, 2.5cm (1") by default.
Esto se puede hacer más fácil tomando una pieza de twine más larga que las cajas. Diga esto entre los lados derecho, a lo largo del pliegue. Asegúrese de capturar esto mientras coser el lado corto. Puedes usar esto para tirar el extremo a través del tubo que has creado. Cuando hayas terminado, puedes cortarlo. Tener un palo largo o un volteador de bucle puede ayudar también con esto.
Hold the front side against your belly and wrap both strings around you and tie in the back (or, if you have long strings, wrap them all the way around you and tie in the front). Then hand the back side through your legs to yourself and tie the other strings in the front.
