This is a pattern made entirely in Tunisian crochet.

These trousers are inspired by Vikings and Icelandic traditions. The pattern is written for teenagers and adult men. You can make the legs to any length you like, but the pattern specifies ¾ length. The trousers are intended to be worn with a belt.

The design can be crocheted entirely in the round. If you prefer, you can also crochet everything flat and stitch the seams together afterwards.
