Elimination Communication Training Pant Sewing Pattern to fit 1-2 year old. I am practicing EC with my toddler and couldn't find a reusable option that fitted the need. I needed something that was waterproof, could be taken easily on and off by my toddler, was soft and not so bulky. The use of small elastic also meant that these pants should last long with growth as they stretch to a much larger size, I would guess 2 but could last till 3. I hope to be diaper free by then anyway.
This pattern and instruction is step by step and meant for an intermediate skill set. It's an easy pattern the difficulty would be with your materials selection as you are working with two different fabrics with weight and stretch variances. If you live in Australia I have included supplier links where I bought material to make the above. It is very versatile, you could also use this to make swim bottoms, you would just swap the fleece lining for something like swimsuit mesh.
I have a diploma in textile clothing and manufacturing as well a BA fine Arts and Advanced Create Suite. I chose to use cloth nappies for environmental and comfort reasons, Elimination Communication I feel develops self autonomy and body awareness.
I have tested out this pattern but any issues drop me a line.
