Little Textures Baby Pants on Baby

Cute little baby clothing is not only fun to put on babies, but it’s fun to make too! I created the Little Textures Baby Pants crochet pattern for my sweet little nephew when he was born. These crochet pants look so adorable over a onesie, or by themselves! You can use these pants for a photo shoot, or just to keep your little one warm! 

The Little Textures Baby Pants crochet pattern comes with instructions for sizes newborn to 24 months. 

You’ll need worsted weight (#4) yarn and a size I crochet hook, or whatever hook you meet gauge with. The pants in the photo above are made using Lion Brand Yarn Jeans yarn in the colorway Stonewash.

Jeans yarn is a super soft and stretchy yarn and is gently against a baby’s sensitive skin! However, feel free to use any worsted weight (#4) yarn you prefer. 

Be sure to check out the matching Little Textures Newborn Beanie and Little Textures Baby Skirt crochet patterns! Both are also free patterns!

You can purchase the ad-free, printable pdf version of this pattern on Ravelry and Etsy

Finishing

To fix the gap in between the two pant legs, with a long piece of yarn and a yarn needle seam it together.

Optional: Add button right in the middle of the waistline.

If you’d rather make a tie, chain to about the length and a half of your waistline, knot on both ends. Use your hook to weave it through the stitches of the waistband.
