Shana's daughter in split crotch pants



Marina is wearing a pair of split crotch pants made by her momma, Shana. The fabric is beautiful and the pants look great. Marina is such cutie:)

Here are the modificaitons that Shana made to the pattern to fit her daughter:

"I increased the length by 2 inches. ( 1.5 in. on the bottom and .5 at the top.) I also had to let the waist out 2" on each side to fit over her fanny. I kept the width of the pant leg the same and added a small flare at the bottom.
Next pattern modification will include the waist adjustment (2") and also a bit more length at the ankle. Marina is 20 mos, but is 32 lbs and 35" tall. She is literally off the charts. Right now she pretty much wears a 3T."

Shana sent photos these to me so that I could put them on my website.

Thanks!

  3. thanks for such a fabulous pattern! I just made a pair for my son (19mo) out of polar fleece and he loves them! He's so proud that he can use his potty completely by himself now. Thanks again!

  5. I love this pattern! I have made about six pairs in fleece for my 6-month old son, and they are perfect for the cooler days, so I don't need to blast the heater to keep him easy to potty. I raved about them so much I had to make a pair for a friend. Thanks!!!
