Assembly 1- place stitch markers on center 2 sts on each leg (17 and 18).

Fold each leg in half with RS facing in.

Match rows and sew inseam of each leg, making sure to leave tops of end sts free. Do not end off. Turn legs right side out and fold so that top rows have one stitch marker at each end facing front and one at each end facing the back.

Row 30-Ch 3, joined dc in next st, dc in each st across, turn.

Repeat row 30 until back is at waist height. Model has 36 rows. End off after last row.

Front: Turn piece over to other side and repeat instructions for back, but do not end off after last row.

Final row/belt-ch 6” and then end off. Attach yarn to beginning of last row and make another 6” chain and end off.

Finishing: Use starting tails of both legs to fully close center seam. Secure all joins and weave in all ends. Tuck back sides of pants under the front. Pass each chain over the first 12 dc of the back, under the middle 10 chains, and over the last 12 chains. Then pass each chain through the dc on either side of the 10 center dcs of the front. Pull the belt and tie in front of the doll’s waist. Knot each end of the ch belt so it is less likely to pull out of the dc stitches. Adjust gathers if necessary.
