I have purchased fabric from at least three different places - one big box, one small bricks-and-mortar place, and one online purchase. All of them eventually pilled even though I too never dry my pants, and only wash on cold inside-out.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09815988914005580044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33406737.post-57728509313561107662012-01-17T18:14:07.598-06:002012-01-17T18:14:07.598-06:00Wow!

With all the wonderful new fabrics and styles for knits, seems that "knit pants" are not a bad thing anymore.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13960310379822122045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33406737.post-77320216952847250772012-01-17T16:57:27.083-06:002012-01-17T16:57:27.083-06:00It seems everywhere I turn I see Ponte pants and I...It seems everywhere I turn I see Ponte pants and I love them! A word of caution about the Ponte from Hancock's fabric. I have used the charcoal gray and the navy. They both have a pilling issue, the gray much more than the navy. I don't use the dryer on them after the prewash.Andreahttp://satinbirddesigns.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33406737.post-41942330168144883342012-01-17T16:36:04.081-06:002012-01-17T16:36:04.081-06:00I just happen to be wearing some RTW black ponte k...I just happen to be wearing some RTW black ponte knit pants today. I looked EVERYWHERE to find a well fitting pair at an acceptable price. I was not going to participate in most of this sew along but dang, Lori, you've done so much research, I might have to! I have yet to make a successful pair of pant, which is sort of a drawback to being able to keep up with your sewing speed.Barbara Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09992261537059593517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33406737.post-9385078923001281682012-01-17T11:25:57.813-06:002012-01-17T11:25:57.813-06:00I have a pair of black ponte pants coming up too. ...I have a pair of black ponte pants coming up too.

I guess that means I should make me a pair for work and not for just working out!?!
