How to Make a Long Mesh Pant: A Step-by-Step Tutorial

Introduction In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to create a stylish long mesh pant. Whether you're an experienced crocheter or a beginner, this step-by-step guide will help you make a beautiful pant using simple techniques. So, grab your crochet hook and let's get started!

Materials Needed Before we begin, let's make sure you have all the necessary materials. For this project, you will need:

• Size 3 acrylic yarn (color of your choice)
• 30 to 40 grams of each color (for a colorful version)
• 5mm hook
• Measuring tape
• Stitch marker
• Scissors
• Darning needle

Hip Measurement and Chain Preparation To start, you'll need to determine your hip measurement. Make chains that are equal to your hip measurement, ensuring that the total number of chains is a multiple of six. Divide the total number of chains by two, and it should give you an even number. Slip stitch in the first chain to form a ring.

Creating the Mesh Pattern Now that we have our foundation, let's create the mesh pattern. Single crochet in the first chain and then chain 11. Skip five chains and single crochet in the next chain. Repeat this pattern until you have five chains left. Chain five and treble crochet in the beginning single crochet stitch. This chain five treble crochet will act as your chain 11 space. Continue this pattern for several rows.

Determining the Length and Adding the Crotch To determine the length of your pant, continue repeating the mesh pattern until you reach your desired length. Remember that the pattern is stretchy lengthwise, so consider this while determining the number of rows. Once you've reached the desired length, it's time to add the crotch. Count the total number of chain 11 spaces and subtract two. Divide the result by two, and this will be the number of chain spaces you'll skip. Attach a stitch marker in the next space and chain 11. Slip stitch in the marked space and keep the stitch marker in place.

Completing the Legs To start the legs, chain one and single crochet in the same space. Chain 11 and single crochet in the next space. Repeat this pattern until you reach the last space before the crotch area. Chain five and treble crochet in the beginning single crochet stitch. Repeat the mesh pattern for each leg, following the same steps as before.

Attaching the Waist Tie Once both legs are complete, return to the first row to attach a waist tie. Make 250 chains for the waist tie. Skip the first single crochet stitch and pull one end of the waist tie through every other stitch. Adjust the waist tie as needed.
