PDF Crochet pattern for the perfect pair of legwear. Make 'em short, make 'em long, they're great either way! They have a high, folder waistband, slightly dropped crotch and wide leg. I'd rate it a 3/5 in terms of difficulty. 
 
This pattern is made top down in moss stitch with a yarn over slip stitch ribbing at the waist and i-cord details on the bottom hem of the leg.

Gauge for 10x10 cm: 12 stitches by 16 rows in moss stitch on hook 3,5mm, or hook needed to meet gauge. Always make a gauge swatch and remember to block it.
