Leggings are the same leggings that fit the lower body well. Usually they are knitted on a typewriter or by hand from woolen or semi-woolen yarn. Basically, for a tighter fit, both in light industry and in home knitting, the "elastic" pattern is used. Excellent warm pants in the cold season will keep your baby warm. A beautifully knitted product can serve as a wonderful gift for children.

Instructions
Step 1
Pick up the yarn first. Better to prefer woolen or semi-woolen. If leggings are supposed to be worn with a warm jumper or sweater, then fluffy yarn will do. However, if you plan to wear pants under a dress or skirt, then in this case it is better to give preference to threads of a smooth structure. For the product, you can take plain or colored yarn. Then the leggings will be striped, the width and color of which can be adjusted at will.
Step 2
Tie the sample, which consists of 20 loops and 20 rows, beforehand, wash and then dry in a flattened form. After that, based on his measurements, you can make calculations for the baby's panties. Traditionally, leggings are knitted with a 1x1 or 2x2 elastic band. But you can experiment a little and knit with a slightly modified knit, which combines both an elastic band and a front surface. Therefore, you need to adhere to the basic scheme No. 1 - 3 front loops, 1 purl loop.
Step 3
For knitting for a child (about 5 years old), cast on circular knitting needles 96 loops (should be divisible by 4) and knit 8 rows in a circle with front loops, taking into account that the needlework starts from the top, and therefore the elastic is first knitted in the waist area. To make the elastic look nice, make "teeth". To do this, continue to knit according to pattern # 2 (2 front loops, 1 yarn), and the next row is knitted according to pattern # 3 (1 front loop, the second loop is knitted together with the front crochet). After that, continue to knit 8 rows again.
Step 4
Go to scheme number 1 and knit until, according to the measurements of the child, you do not have to start the trousers. To do this, divide the number of loops into two parts - you get 48 pieces each. Lower one part onto additional knitting needles, and continue to knit the other part (leg) with the same pattern to the desired length. To complete, you can use the "teeth" frame (scheme # 2 and # 3) or finish with a regular 1x1 rubber band.
Step 5
Do the same for knitting the second leg. After finishing knitting, return to the belt, make a hem that folds well in the area of the "teeth" and fix it with light stitches or on a typewriter, leaving an unsewn area for threading a linen gum.
