A precise pattern for the basis of trousers for a boy is the main pattern that can be used in the future to model various styles of children's trousers. For convenience, we recommend that you build the base on graph paper and save it without cutting. Transfer the contours of the pattern onto tracing paper and then model the style.
Pattern-basis of trousers for a school-age boy(in our case we use a size 36 model): See:
Measurements required to create a pattern:
- Side length of trousers 80 cm
- Half waist 34 cm
- Half hip circumference 38 cm
Construction of the front half of the trousers
Fig.1. Pattern-basis of trousers for a boy
Draw rectangle ABCD.
Pants width. The lines of the rectangle AB and DC are equal to 25 centimeters (1/2 the semicircle of the hips by measurement plus 6 centimeters for all sizes): 38:2 + 6 = 25 cm. IMPORTANT! If you want to make tighter trousers, the increase in fit should be reduced.
Length trousers. The lines of the rectangle AD and BC are equal to 80 cm (the length of the trousers as measured).
Pants step line. From point A, 21 cm is laid down and point W is placed (1/2 the semicircle of the hips by measurement plus 2 centimeters for all sizes): 38: 2 + 2 = 21 cm.
From point Ш to the right, draw a straight line until it intersects with line ВС, the intersection point is designated by the letter Ш1.
Trouser bow line. 4 centimeters are set aside from point Ш1 to the left. From point 4, draw a straight line upward until it intersects with line AB and place a point T. Then, 4 centimeters are set aside from point 4 upward. The bow line is drawn through points T, 4, Ш1.
Waist line of trousers. From point T, set aside 20 cm to the left and place point T1 (1/2 of the semi-circle of the waist according to the measurement plus 3 cm for folds for all sizes): 34: 2 + 3 = 20 cm.
Trouser knee line. The Ш1С line is divided in half and 6 centimeters are laid upward from the division point. From point 6 to the left, draw a straight line until it intersects with line AD.
Pants crease line. Line ШШ1 is divided in half and through the division point a straight line is drawn down to the intersection with the DC line and up to the intersection with the AB line. The point of intersection of the waist line is designated by the letter T2.
Bottom line of trousers. From point D, set aside 3 cm to the right and place point H. From point C, set aside 3 cm to the left and place point H1. Points H and H1 are connected.
Pants inseam. Points Ш1 and Н1 are connected.
Side seam of trousers for boys. Points T1, Ш, Н are connected.
Darts or pleats at the waistline. From point T2, 1.5 centimeters are set aside to the right. The T1T2 line is divided in half and 1.5 cm is set aside from the division point to the right.
Trouser cuff. If you want to make a lapel (cuff) on the bottom of your trousers, then extend the lines from points H and H1 downwards by 6-8 centimeters and connect them with a dotted line.
Constructing the back half of the trousers
Draw a rectangle ABCD.
Pants width. The lines of the rectangle AB and DC are equal to 25 cm (1/2 the semicircle of the hips according to the measurement plus 6 centimeters for all sizes): 38: 2 + 6 = 25 cm.
Length trousers. The lines of the rectangle AD and BC are equal to 80 cm.
Step length and width. From point A, 21 cm are laid down and point W is placed (1/2 the semicircle of the hips by measurement plus 2 centimeters for all sizes): 38: 2 + 2 = 21 cm.
From point Ш draw a line to the right until it intersects with line ВС. The intersection point is designated by the letter Ш1. From point Ш to the left, draw a line 7.3 cm long (1/4 of the distance ШШ1 plus 1 centimeter for all sizes):
25: 4 + 1 = 7.3 cm.
Knee line. The Ш1С line is divided in half and 6 centimeters are laid upward from the division point. From point 6 to the left, draw a straight line until it intersects with line AD and 3 cm beyond the line.
Waist line of trousers. From point B to the right, extend line AB arbitrarily. Then the AB line is divided in half and 3 centimeters are laid upward from the division point. From point 3 to the right to the intersection with the extended line AB, draw a waist line equal to 17 cm and place a point T (1/2 of the waist semicircle by measurement): 34: 2 = 17 cm.
The waist line from point 3 to the left is extended by 5 cm.
In this article we will look at the construction basic pattern straight trousers for a boy according to the Italian method.
Initial data
Attention: all measurements are taken from the child’s body while wearing underwear.
For convenience, we record all data in a table. In our case, let’s take the values for a 10-year-old boy (height 140 cm)

Constructing a pattern for the front panel of trousers
(1). So, you can draw a pattern drawing on graph paper (it is sold in rolls up to 1 m wide) or in the program RedCafe- in the second case, our drawing will be in electronic form, it will never be wrinkled, torn or grow old.
We start by building the front panel of the trousers. Place a dot in the upper left corner A. Next, from t.A put two measurements down: Wb- we put t.V And Sun + 0.5 cm- we put t.S. We also put it down from t.A measure - Dk, put t.D and measure Dizd- we put t.F.
(2). From t.A set aside the measurement to the right ¼ (From + Right) + 1 cm, put t.A1. From t.V to the right we put a segment equal to ¼ (OB + Pr.b), put t.B1.From t.S to the right we postpone the value of the segment BB1, put t.C1 and to the left - a segment equal 1/20 OB - t.C2.
(3). Set aside from t.A right 1 cm and put t.A2. Connect the dots with a smooth line C2, B And A2, we get the middle seam.
(4). Using a pattern we connect the dots A1, B1, C1. If you don’t have a pattern at hand, draw a smooth line.
(5). Let's find the middle of the segment S1S2, put those. Draw a perpendicular to the line S1S2 in both directions and at the intersection with the line AA1 put t.E1. From t.F draw lines to the right and left. At the intersection of the lines we put t.E2. From i.e. E2 9.5 cm(half the required width of the trouser leg along the bottom cut) - put dots F2 and F1.
(6). Through t.D draw a line and at the intersection with the segment E1E2 put t.D1. In both directions from it we put aside, for example, 10 cm- this value is equal to the measure OK + Pr.k., put the dots D3 And D2.
(7). Connecting the dots C2, D2, F1 and we get the inner seam. Connecting the dots C1, D3, F2 and get a side seam. Line segment E1ED1E2 is the middle.
(8). The pattern for the front of the trousers is ready.
Constructing a pattern rear detail trousers
(9). Place a dot in the upper right corner A. Next, from t.A put two measurements down: Wb - put t.V And Sun + 0.5cm- we put t.S. We also put it down from t.A measure - Dk, put t.D and measure Dizd- we put t.F.
(10). From t.A set aside the measurement to the left ¼ OB + 2 cm, put t.A1.From t.S to the left we put the value of the segment AA1, put t.S2 and to the right - a segment equal 1/10 OB - t.S3. From t.V to the left we put a segment equal to AA1 and put t.B2.
(11). From t.S3 put down 1 cm- we put t.S4.
(12). To the left of t.A postpone 2 cm, put t.N. Connecting points with a straight line N And WITH and extend it upward by 2 cm. Using a pattern we connect the dots H1, H and C4- we get the middle seam on the back half of the trousers.
(13). Connecting the dots A1 And H1 straight line and plot it from t.N1 measure ¼ (From + Rt.t.) + 2cm put it on the tuck t.H2. We connect with a smooth line H2, B2, C2- using a pattern or by hand.
(14). On line H1H2 find the middle, put t.M. From it we draw a perpendicular to the line H1H2 length equal 5-6 cm, put t.M1. Set aside for 1 cm on both sides of t.M and put dots N And N1. We connect the resulting points with straight lines and get a dart on the back half of the trousers.
(15). Through dots D And F draw straight lines. Line segment С2С3 divide in half and put those. Draw a perpendicular through it to the segment AA1, put i.e. E1. Extend it down and put dots at the intersection of the lines D1 And E2.
(16). From point D1 to the right and to the left we postpone by 11 cm (1/2 measurement Ok + Right + 1 cm), put the dots G And G1. From t.E2 set aside on both sides 10.5 cm- that is, on 1 cm more than on the front half of the trousers, put dots F2 And F3.
(17). Let's connect the dots C2, G1, F3 using a smooth line or using a pattern and we get the side seam of the back half of the trousers. Similarly, using a special pattern, we connect the dots C4, G, F2- we get the inner crotch seam of the back half of the trousers.
We're done with building the base of the trousers, let's move on to the waistband.
Belt pattern
(18). The belt pattern is a rectangle wide 5 cm, V finished form 2.5 cm and length From + 3 cm on the clasp.

Master Class. We sew classic trousers for a boy.
According to a centuries-old tradition, gentlemen, even the youngest, are expected to wear dress trousers to the ball. If your gentleman has grown up over the fall or you just want to see him at the New Year tree dressed to the nines - then this is the master class for you! And it is presented by its author - Yulia Pasynkova, with whom many of you are very familiar....
Julia: "Girls, do you like surprises? I have prepared one for you - this is a long-promised and long-awaited master class on sewing classic trousers for a boy. Not the simplest and easiest to perform MK, both for me - the writer, and for you - reading and sewing. A lot of photographs, a lot of words... I had to photograph the same place many times, then still highlight and finish painting. Here and there you can see funny shadows from my hands, belly or camera...
Despite this, I hope that MK will be useful and understandable for you.
I will say right away that I do not pretend to correctly and reliably process certain components, or the entire technology as a whole. I sewed, as usual, on a whim. Moreover, of course, there were some “jambs”; I will point out the most obvious and visible ones in my description so that you don’t do the same. "
Are you thinking about making something new for your son, but don’t know what exactly? Make pants for a boy with elastic. These pants are perfect for everyday wear, and can also be sewn holiday option. You can find patterns for six different styles in this article.
Plain pants
There is nothing easier than an elastic band for a boy. The pattern consists of only two parts. Accordingly, the product will need to be supplemented with wide elastic bands that will support the pants at the waist and be fixed at the ankles. In such trousers, a boy can walk and walk around the house. They do not restrict movement, and the child will feel comfortable in them. But such pants are not suitable for a festive event. They are too simple.
Pattern of children's trousers for children preschool age given above. To sew such pants, you should scale the picture and print it in the desired size. To do this, you need to measure the length of the child's trouser leg, as well as his waist circumference. Based on these dimensions, we scale the pattern. Now you need to cut it out on the fabric. There is nothing complicated here. We trace the pattern on the material and cut out the details. We make side seams. You need to sew a wide elastic band into the upper part of the product, as well as into the legs. If desired, the trousers can have patch pockets.
Long pants
It is good to sew such trousers from and use synthetic padding as a lining. These pants will protect the child from cold wind and slanting rain. And sewing them will not be difficult at all. for a boy with an elastic band is presented in the article. It needs to be scaled, printed, and then transferred through the window to tracing paper. As a result, you should get two shelves - back and front.
We transfer the patterns onto fabric. You should have 4 parts. Don't forget that the right and left legs should be cut in a mirror image. If you plan to sew trousers with a lining, then you will need to cut out 4 more parts from padding polyester and from the lining material. Now you need to sew all the parts together in pairs. First of all, we lay the side seams on all the legs. If the product is sewn with a lining, then the inner part is assembled first, and only then the outer part is wrapped. The last stage is sewing in the elastic. It should be inserted into both the waistband and the legs.
Jeans
These trousers will be similar to those that appear in the first paragraph of this article, but the difference will be in the middle seam, or rather in its presence. In this model it is assumed. Why make an extra seam at all if you can do without it? The fact is that clothes consisting of a large number of parts and having constructive darts always fit better. Therefore, you should not waste time creating a product.
The pattern for boys' elastic trousers is attached above. We will sew such pants from denim material, since guys often fall, and the thin fabric will quickly become unusable. We cut out 4 parts from the fabric and begin to sew them in pairs. First we make the trouser legs, and then attach them to each other. The elastic should be sewn in last. In this model it will be a decorative element, so it is worth choosing it to match the fabric.
Short trousers
Making these pants will be quite a difficult task. After all, this style is a complete copy of the adult model. The pattern of children's trousers with elastic for a boy is not difficult. First, you need to adjust it to the child’s height. When this action is completed, you need to transfer the pattern onto paper. You should cut it along the dotted lines, that is, separate the front and back pockets. They will require separate patterns.
Now you need to start making fabric parts. When they are ready, you can move on to sewing the trousers. The big parts are assembled first. Then the front and back pockets are sewn to the legs. And only after this the trouser legs are ground together. Lastly, the elastic is sewn into the waistband. Be sure to trim the edges of the pants. There is no need to sew an elastic band there; you just need to tuck them in and stitch them.
Shorts
The finished elastic band for a boy is shown below. You can use it to sew both full-length pants and shorts. Everything will depend on the size and length that you give to the product. We scale the pattern and then cut it out. Now you need to transfer all the details onto the fabric. You need to choose a dense material, even for summer. Why? Most boys are quite active, so they cannot sit still and run around all the time. From constant friction, pants quickly become unusable.
After all the parts are cut out, you can proceed to sewing. First you should sew on the decorative overlays. Then you need to sew the pant legs. And only after this can the product be stitched. You can see the belt on the pattern. You must first sew the fabric to the elastic band, and then attach it to the top of the trousers. If desired, the pants can be decorated with an applique of your son’s favorite cartoon character.
Pants for little ones
The pattern for elasticated trousers for a boy who recently turned six months old will look like the image below. It’s easy to sew these pants yourself; you just need to know exactly the height of your baby. Based on this parameter, you should scale the image attached below. We transfer the pattern onto paper, and then cut out the parts from felt or any other soft fabric.
Let's move on to sewing the product. The first step is to sew the pant legs together. Then you need to attach the overlay to them. We sew it to the bottom of the trouser leg, and in order for it to be easily fastened, you should install buttons or Velcro on the trousers. Now all that remains is to assemble the product and sew on the elastic. These trousers can be paired with a jacket, the pattern for which is shown in the same image.
In order to sew trousers or panties for a child, you need a pattern. You can, of course, use old trousers, rip them open and cut out new ones. But if there are no suitable pants that can be flogged, then it is better to draw the trouser pattern itself.
This master class is suitable even for those who have never designed patterns, but only used ready-made ones from magazines. But let's get down to business. First of all, we need to prepare necessary materials and tools for creating trouser patterns, as well as -.
Designing trousers (pattern construction) for a boy 5-6 years old
We will need:
St = 56/2 = 28 cm – half waist circumference
Sat = 64/2 = 32 cm – half hip circumference
About = 33 cm – hip circumference
Ds = 52 cm – seat length
Lk = 38 cm – length of trousers to the knee
Diz = 75 cm – product length
Shn = 30 cm – bottom width
Loose fit allowances:
Construction of a drawing of the front panel of trousers
We construct an angle with the vertex at point T.
From point T down vertically we draw a seat line. TC = (Ds+10cm)/3; TC = (52+10)/3 = 20.5 cm. From point C upwards we lay off the line of the hips SB = 1/3St; Sat = 1/3 * 28 = 9.5cm From point T downwards we lay the bottom line TN = Diz + 1cm; TN = 75 + 1 = 76 cm (for children, you can give a larger hem allowance than 1 cm, so that there is room to release the length). From point H upward, lay a knee line with the apex at point K. NK = ½ NS + 6 cm up; NK = ½ (76-15)+6 = 36 cm From points T, B, C, K, H, draw horizontal lines to the right.
We calculate and set aside the width of the front panel of the trousers along the seat line CC1 = ½ Sat + 7 cm; CC1 – ½ *32+7=23cm
We measure and draw the fold line of the front half of the trousers CC0 = ½ CC1; CC0 = ½ *23 = 11.5 cm From point C0, draw vertical lines up and down and place dots at the intersection with the horizontal lines of the waist, hips, knees and bottom.
We make the cutout of the bow. The width of the bow cutout in the front panel of the trousers is calculated as follows: C1C2 = 1/10 Sb; C1C2 = 1/10 * 32 = 3.2 cm
From point C2 we draw a vertical upward and at the intersection we place points B1T1. Auxiliary point for decorating the bow cutout B1B2 = 0.5 cm to the right C2C3 = 1/10 Sa; C2C3 = 1/10 *32 = 3.2 cm
We connect C1 and C3 with a straight line, connect points B2 and T1. From point C2 we draw a bisector of the angle and at the intersection with line C1C3 we obtain point C2’.
For a cutout on the bisector, we make a recess of 1 cm C2’1 = 1 cm
Through points C1, 1, B2, T we draw the cutout of the bow with a smoothly concave line.
The width of the front panel of the trousers along the waist line is calculated as follows: T1T2 = ½ St + 3cm; 3 cm is given for a fold or dart. T1T2 = ½ * 28 + 3 = 17 cm. If from point T2 to point T is more than 3 cm, then the width of the front panel of the trousers along the waist line increases by 1 cm per seam.
From point T2 we put 1 cm upward and place point T2’. Through points T0 and T2 we form the upper cut of the front panel of the trousers to point T1. Т2Т2’ = 1 cm
The width of the front panel at the knee line is: K0K1=K0K2=1/2 Shk (knee width measurements). This measurement is arbitrary and, as a rule, it is not included in the pattern.
Width of the front panel at the bottom line: Н0Н1=Н0Н2=1/2 Шн; Н0Н1=Н0Н2= ½*30=15cm
Connect points C, K, H and BT2. Through these points we form the side seam of the trousers on the seat line to form point C4.
We draw up the side cut of the front panel of the trousers through points T2’ and B, and the step cut through points C1, K2, H2. We draw the entire pattern with a colored felt-tip pen and cut it out.
Construction of the back panel of the trousers
The drawing of the back panel is based on the drawing of the front panel of the trousers. In order not to re-draw the pattern of the front panel, we cut it out already ready-made pattern and pin it on a clean sheet of paper. We draw all the horizontal lines and the vertical center line.
Draw a cut of the seat along the waist line. T0T3 = 1/10 Sat – 1 cm (we put it from point T0 to the right) T0T3 = 1/10*32 – 1 = 2.2 cm. From point C2 through point T3 we draw a straight line upward. T3T4 = 1/10 Sb – 1.5 cm (for a normal figure) T3T4 = 1/10 Sb – 2 cm (for underdeveloped buttocks) T3T4 = 1/10 Sb – 0-1cm (for highly developed buttocks) T4’ – measured at 0.5-1 cm from point T4 along a perpendicular line.
The width of the back half of the trousers along the seat line C4C5 = 1/10 Sb = 1/10 * 32 = 3.2 cm. Place point C5 from C1 to the left. C1C6 = 1/10 Sb + 2 cm. We move point C6 from C1 to the right.
The width of the back half of the trousers along the knee line and along the bottom line should be 1 cm larger on each side. We set aside 1 cm from points K1, K2, H1, H2 from the center line of the trousers to the outer sides. We connect the corresponding points and draw up the side and step cuts. From hemline to knee.
From point K4 through point C5 we draw a straight line until it intersects with the waist line and place point T5 on it. T5T6 = 1 cm, set aside to the right from point T5.
We control the length of the side cut from the knee line of the front and rear panels. The cut length of the back half can be 1 cm longer. We equalize the step cuts. We connect point K3 with point C6. From point C6 in a straight line to point K3, put 1 cm down and place point C7. Through points C7, C1, C3, T3, T4’ we draw a stepwise cut of the back panel of the trousers with a smoothly concave line.
We connect points T4’ and T6 with a straight line, forming an upper cut.
We connect points C5 and T6, forming a side cut of the back panel of the trousers.
We draw all the main lines of the pattern, draw auxiliary central and all horizontal lines (which remained under the front panel pattern) and cut out the finished pattern.
On the finished pattern you should write the measurements according to which it was drawn. When the child grows up and you have to sew his trousers again, you will first need to take new measurements and compare them with those according to which the drawing was drawn. As a rule, small children grow upward and it will be very easy to adjust an old pattern to new standards.
The master class was prepared by Madame Tsygul
