Cute knitted britches :)
These make really cute gifts :)
I got the idea from my grandma, They used to be really popular gifts years ago
There is a poem that goes along with it:
Now don't get excited,
Don't be misled,
These aren't for you,
But for the dishes instead.
Just pull on the bows,
Take out the stitches,
You've gained 2 dishcloths,
But you've lost your britches!

Fold them both in half with the open ends facing each other

Step 3
Take your ribbon and thread it through the top of the dishcloths using a darning needle or a crochet hook. Tie a bow when you get to the end :)

Step 4
Thread ribbon through both of the legs and tie with a bow. Thread ribbon through the middle of the legs so it stays together easier :)
