Knitted Pants

I made these pants out of the same yarn as my Baby Surprise Jacket.  The pattern for the pants is from my book, Last-Minute Knitted Gifts. The pattern is very much inspired by the knitting style of Elizabeth Zimmermann, they're knitted completely in the round, and they get finished with an i-cord drawstring.  In the book the pants are made out of Rowan's Denim Yarn which shrinks 10% lengthwise when you wash and dry it, so I made these a little shorter than the pattern recommends.  --Joellesuprisejacket-with-pants.jpg
