Theo Pants are worked in the round from the bottom up using a single strand of Merino and feature a simple textured stripe pattern consisting of only knit and purl stitches.
Each leg is worked separately up to the crotch where work is joined on one needle. Here, the crotch is first shaped with decreases before the backside of the pants is shaped with short rows to make room for the diaper. Afterwards, the pants are finished with a folded waistband with two openings for the i-cord drawstring.
