Isla Shorts

Pattern Pieces

Simple, concise directions, steps were in sequence

Pictures were in focus and appropriate for pattern

Small for size. Rise was the same in both front and back and was much too short, fell far short of natural waist. I had to add 3 inches to rise to allow for elastic waist casing.

N/A

Would not make again due to the modifications required to make the pattern fit.

I made it but had to alter the pattern. Cute concept and idea but poor customer service when ever you ask a question having to do with an error in a CKC pattern.

This pattern has a page that is duplicated in the pattern. It took me about and hour to realize this after I could not find where the pattern piece was supposed to go. When I contacted the designer, it was an oh oops, but never recieved a revised pattern.

Steps laid out well, easy pattern with measurements.

Pictures fine.

Average fit.

Had issues where the pattern was not printing correctly. The pattern very clearly states not to select the "auto rotate and center" function. This is the only way to print the pattern completely without the size 8 lines missing sections. It took 2 evening of frustration and wasted paper and ink to finally figure it out.

Will make again but will not be buying addtional CKC patterns. I have 31 patterns and so far 8 of the 20 I have sewn have had an issue with the pattern pieces or printing instructions.

The FB page person answered my questions about issues but I am certain I will not recieve a corrected pattern and that other are having the same issue.
