More Cow Pants

After making the first pair of cow pants an idea kept floating round in my head and I couldn't let it go, so I now present to you.......
..... the new improved Cow Pants!

oh yes it is.... cow fur! (fake of course)
Mr Almost Four was impressed.
And the pocket detail? it says Moo Moo Moo Moo all the way round. :o)
Two pockets for the ipods, as per the request.

He was even happy to model them and wore them to preschool!
He loves dogs too - so he was wearing his Cow Pants with his 'Who let the dogs out 1' shirt (he's got two and his naming system is very regimented.)

He can be cute when he wants to be.
The back side version.
This is his normal face. It's also the 'no more photos' face.




I like this face better.

Again?????

Little Mister Almost Four was happy to model the first pair of pants, but the second, well it was *much* harder to get him to stand still and I'm surprised you can't see his bottom lip down near his knees.
I used some black cord this time. Mum bought it when she was up visiting and left it (it's not that I don't have my own mountain of material, just hers was the easiest as it was sitting there!)
The comment here was 'mooooorrrrree?' when I said I wanted a couple more photos.
and this was the only shot I could get as he walked away from me.

I'm a cow..... sort of

I wanted to make some pants for Little Mister Almost-Four and I found this pattern which appealed to me in its ease and simplicity.

They were easy to make - there are only two pieces, but I have to admit I have since altered the pattern, a LOT. They are very straight, that is the front and back rise are both the same length, which isn't too bad for kids but I notice on little Mister that you can often see his undies at the back.

Anyway....

These are the Moooooooooo pants. (no cows were harmed in the making of these pants)

The material is a drill, from Spotlight and for Little Mister about 70cms is plenty on 120cm wide material.
(oh, the pants don't have pockets either, so I added those afterwards)
This is Mister Almost-Four being a cow - in case you didn't guess.


and his model pose means putting his hands on his hips of course.

This is a cow wagging its tail.
The pocket is nice and big - big enough to hold an ipod, although I got a good grilling about why I didn't make 2 pockets so he could put Little Miss 7's ipod in too!

They're a bit light weight for winter, but hopefully, when the paddocks are full of nice green grass the cows will come out to play.
