Step 2: find some fabric. I have some boring white cotton, but you can use whatever, it's now going to be visible anyway. Just make sure it's not too flimsy or too heavy. Look at what your existing pocket is made of and find something that feels the same(ish). An old sheet or ugly cotton shirt could be an excellent source of pocket materiaal. My existing pocket is one piece, folded over, so I'm going to make a folded pocket as well. If your pocket is made of two separate pieces, cut two identical pieces. I've just eyeballed a pocket shape here and drew it straight on the fabric. You could make a paper pattern piece first if you want. I'm not going to sew the pocket into the side seam except at the point where it joins the old pocket, too much effort. #sewing #pockets

    PS, don't forget to add seam allowances (1 or 2 cm extra fabric) or you'll end up with less deep pockets than you expected. #sewing #pockets
