Easy elastic-waist pants

There could be many reasons for making these pants:  you don't want to pay a ton for simple elastic-waist pants at the store, you or your husband have some old pants that don't fit anymore, or you need some pants for your little boy or girl that actually fit.  Whatever the reason, I found a tutorial for making these pants.  I obviously didn't make mine with knee pads.  Dana teaches you how to make your own pattern using some pants that fit.  This takes a little time, but then you have a pattern to use for future pants as well.  I also added pockets to mine because I made them for church since he didn't have any great-fitting khaki pants.  I still need to hem them up a bit so he doesn't step on them, but you get the idea.  Enjoy!  (I love the clearance racks at Target!  $3.20 for the sweater last year.)
