In the method, a sidewall pattern is formed in a side wall of a first resist pattern that is formed on a second hard mask layer of a base material in which first and second hard mask layers are laminated in the order of description, a second hard mask pattern is formed by etching the second hard mask layer by using the sidewall pattern as a mask, a first hard mask pattern is formed by etching the first hard mask layer by using, as a mask, the second hard mask pattern and a second resist pattern that is formed on the first hard mask layer of the base material, and the first and second fine patterns are formed by etching the base material by using the first hard mask pattern as a mask.
