Calico Critters Dad Christmas Overalls
Sadly I don't have many patterns for the male critters. I did discover one after the donation last year that I haven't tried but the overalls are my tried and true for the boys.
This is a On A Calico Day pattern that can be purchased here. It includes a pattern for Mom and Dad.
Notes:
I used size 20 thread and a 1mm hook to get these to fit.
There are several options for the pants. I can never get the full length legs to fit so mine are always the shorter legs and I choose not to add the cuff. This time I added a red trim to give it a holiday feel using sc around the top and surface stitching the bottom of the pants using a chain 1 between stitches.
I looked at adding buttons to this set of overalls but found with the contrasting colors it was too much.
