Skill: Beginner

Materials

Hook 5 mm
Yarn needle
Measurement tape
Yarn
  
Measurements.

Waist: 5 inches/44.5 cms
Inside leg: 6 inches/15 cms
Length from the waist: 11 inches/28 cms



Why am I using measurements?
Simply because the number of stitches may vary with the size of yarn being used. If you are using chunky yarn than the number of stitches will be less but if you are using very thin yarn, the number of stitches will be increased.

Instructions

Waist:

This pattern starts from the waist. 

You will start with simple chain. The number of stitches that I used are 62.

Rounds 1: Double crochet into each chain
Round 2 - 8: Double crochet into each previous stitch.

Legs:

To start working on legs, fold the waist patch you have made and count the number of stitches. For me it was 31 stitches. (As the total number of stitches were 62, half will be 31)

Leg 1:

We will start working on these 31 stitches and compose one leg first.

Round 1 to 10: Double crochet stitch into each stitch. (Total count: 31 stitches)
Round 11:  Double crochet stitch into each stitch, finish with slip stitch.

Leg 2:

To start working on the second leg, join the yarn with the waist band and start crocheting the remaining 31 stitches. Do not join the two halves.

Round 1 to 10: Double crochet stitch into each stitch. (Total count: 31 stitches)
Round 11:  Double crochet stitch into each stitch, finish with slip stitch.

If you wish you can add ribbed crochet stitch at the bottom of each leg and at waist. Close with single crochet.

Join the two legs and the open ends.
Fit with a chain at waist to secure firmly.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial.
