These sweet pants are simple to knit and easy to care for! The generous waistband and rise are cloth diaper friendly, and legs can be easily extended to fit taller babies. For thinner babies, choose a smaller size for the waist band and follow the length directions for their age. Consider adding stripes for even more fun!
