One thing we hear a lot of is how much everyone loves the easy fit pattern, but many times we also hear a request for a how to slim the leg down tutorial. Above you can see the slimmer leg and below the wide leg version and then the side by side of the two.
First I took my regular easy fits pattern and traced around it onto my paper. (I got a newspaper end roll for $5 at the local printing shop 3 years ago and I don't think I've used half of it yet!)
Next I drew a new line, as you can see below I started at the crotch/butt curve and went down and in from there. For a size one I took off 3 inches of leg width. I left the front the same width as my babe is still in diapers. If I was making this for my non diaper wearing child I'd take an inch off the center as well.
Now you cut your 2 pieces and sew as per the pattern! If you'd like a how to lower the front tutorial check us out on facebook! There is a photo tutorial for that in our facebook group :)
Hope you enjoyed! and I'll update this post once I get the oldest in her slimmed version!
