Basic black pants?

Guess again.

Holy slithering stretch pants, Batman!

This is my first contribution to Kids Clothes Week Spring 2014. In keeping with the Kids Clothes Week theme of “Mini Me”, I fashioned these pants for my daughter out of a knit shirt from my closet.

I think I wore this shirt all of three times. I scored it off the sale rack at Ann Taylor years ago, with the thought that it would be something a little funky to pair with a more conservative suit back in my lawyering days. It never worked just right though. It was calling out to be reborn as pants for Daisy.

She is fascinated by the snake print. “Am I a snake, Mommy?”

I used the basic toddler sweatpants pattern by brindilleandtwig as my starting point. The pattern is super easy and lends itself well to modifications. It is a two piece pattern (one piece for the pant front and one for the pant back), which I thought would best accommodate using different fabrics for the front and back of these pants.

I cut the legs slimmer than the pattern calls for to achieve the style I had in mind. I also cut the front piece narrower than the back, so that the black fabric curves a bit more to the front.  The solid black fabric on the back of the legs is ponte roma from Jo-Ann’s. It doesn’t have a great deal of stretch, but the snake print fabric is a rayon/spandex blend that is super stretchy.

These pants are definitely different from anything in her closet. I’m happy with how they turned out — although I don’t have a clue what shoes to pair with them! I was initially concerned the snake print might be too precocious for a two-year old, but paired with her toddler belly these pants are way more amusing than sassy.
