Phoenix Pants
The Phoenix Pants are seamless children’s pants, worked top-down in the round for a clean finish and a comfortable fit.
The design features a tidy waistband with a drawstring casing, short-row shaping for improved fit, and a seamless gusset for comfortable movement. Decorative charted stitch patterns add texture and structure while keeping the overall silhouette balanced and wearable.
The pattern is clearly structured and suitable for knitters who enjoy working with charts and well-defined construction.
