RAAAWR! Dinosaur pants with tail, that is on the wishlist for many kids! The slacks are knit bottom up, with icord-tie or elastic band in the waist. You finish the pants first, then pick up stitches for the tail afterwards. At last, you knit the dinosaur spike details for the perfect finish. This is a great match together with Stegosaurus Sweater!

It is very easy to customise the slacks to the child, as you can vary the sizes and colours of the spikes, tail or no tail, or how about spikes along the bum? It is perfect for using those small scrap yarn pieces, as one dinosaur spike only requires 3.5m yarn.

Gauge 22 stitches per 10 cm allows for a wide range of yarns to be used.

The pattern is available in both English and Norwegian.

Sizes are from 1-10 years, with instructions on how to make adjustments to ensure a good fit.
