Kids Soft Knit Wide Leg Simple Trousers

The Kids Soft Knit Wide Leg Simple Trousers pattern is a relaxed, easy-wearing trouser designed for children. The wide leg gives plenty of room to move, while the flexible elastic waist makes the trousers simple to pull on and comfortable to wear all day. With its straightforward shape and minimal details, this is a friendly project for sewists who want a quick, satisfying make.

Soft knit jersey is the natural choice here, keeping the legs fluid and the waistband comfortable. Cotton jersey, French terry or a light sweatshirt knit all suit the style, in plain colours or playful prints. These trousers work for busy days at the playground, nursery and school mornings, car journeys and quiet evenings at home, and they pair easily with tees and sweatshirts across the seasons.

Sizes run from 2Y to 12Y (2Y, 3Y, 4Y, 5Y, 6Y, 7Y, 8Y, 10Y, 12Y). The pattern is a PDF for printing at home on US Letter paper, and it also includes an A0 file for printing at a copy shop. Each size is a separate file, so you print only the size you need.
