Designed with a free spirit in mind, this project takes the timeless granny square and reimagines it in a fresh, urban-chic way that’s perfect for today’s handmade fashion lovers.
Every square tells a story — a contrast of textures, neutral tones, and structured stitches come together to create a one-of-a-kind garment that’s as expressive as it is cozy. These pants aren’t just about looking cool (though they absolutely do that!) — they’re about feeling good, confident, and wrapped in something you made with your own two hands.
Whether you’re lounging at home, running errands, or heading to a weekend market, this patchwork pant is a wearable work of art. The adjustable drawstring waist adds comfort, while the wide-leg silhouette and cuffed ankles bring structure. And those oversized pocket details? Practical and gorgeous.
Perfect for confident beginners or intermediate crocheters, this project is a great way to experiment with color blocking, shaping, and textured stitching. It’s ideal for using up leftover yarn and showcasing your favorite neutral palette.
So grab your hook, lay out your favorite earth-tone skeins, and let’s bring these pants to life — stitch by stylish stitch.

🧶 Step 1: Crochet the Granny Squares
You will need approximately:
- 6 large granny squares (for the front and back of thighs)
- 4 medium squares (for the sides and upper hip)

Rnd 2–4: Continue in granny square style, changing colors if desired. Fasten off.
Make all squares first and block them so they lie flat.
👖 Step 2: Assemble the Panels
- Lay out the granny squares for one leg panel: 3 squares stacked vertically for the front, and another 3 for the back.
- Repeat for the second leg.
- Seam the squares together using the whip stitch or single crochet join on the wrong side of the fabric.
🪡 Step 3: Add the Lower Leg Panels
Use a mesh or V-stitch pattern to create the bottom part of the pants (from knee to ankle).
Example pattern:

- Seam the outer sides leaving space for the pockets.
- Join both legs together at the crotch with strong stitches.
🧵 Step 5: Waistband
- With a 4.0 mm hook, work a row of single crochets around the waist opening.
- Work 4–6 rows in single crochet, inserting the drawstring or elastic band on the final row.
- Optional: Create a ribbed waistband by alternating front and back post double crochets.
📦 Step 6: Add the Pockets
