My little boy is just about to turn 2 and needs more trousers due to a sudden interest in mud. I thought I could save a lot of money by sewing them and recycling dh's old worn through trousers, but when I measured him, to see what size patterns to buy I hit a problem. He is so diddy - 9th %ile all the way. His waist is 41cm so there are NO patterns except for baby-wear.
Any suggestions?
I was always a bit of a haphazard make-it-up sort of sewer, making my own patterns from garments I liked etc, so I'm happy to just have a go technically. But I've never sewn for a child before (and not anything for 10 years too!) and I feel like I need my hand holding through the thinking! Hopefully it'll be just like getting back on a bike...
