Notes

I’m so in love with this colorway… sigh

6 oz of MM for main color
a bit of Malabrigo for the trim

US 4 for waistband.
US 6 for body and legs.
US 5 for cuffs.

Added eyelet row 2 rows before increase row in waistband as I prefer my drawstring to be lower on the waistband as opposed to in the middle.

Added 2 extra rows on gusset extension.
Picked up 8 stitches along either side of gusset.
Grafted gusset before starting legs.
12” inseam
Crocheted two strands held together for tie. (H hook)

Used every last bit of MM for these! :)
Just over 2 oz for body and just under 2 oz for each leg. Before starting the legs, I weighed all the yarn I had and then split it into two equal balls to be sure I had the same amount for each leg. (I wasn’t sure I’d have enough for longies rather than shorties.) I had just enough!

A PERFECT fit for my tall thin 2 yo!♥
