For adventurous outdoor play, these simple, functional overalls keep children dry and comfortable, whatever the weather.  Designed to be pulled on over clothing, Rainhaven Overalls let kids be kids, freely immersing themselves in nature play, with no worries about keeping clothes clean. 

The pattern includes optional features such as elastic stirrups to keep pant legs in place, a chest pocket, and knee and seat patches that can be combined to make them your own.

Sew them in waterproof fabric for rainy day adventures, or in a sturdy fabric such as canvas for every-day rough-and-tumble play.  

Skill level: adventurous beginner

Make old things new again! Twig & Tale patterns pair wonderfully with upcycled fabrics. Look to large raincoats to upcycle into smaller garments.  Re-use hardware such as buckles, toggles, sliders from old raingear or backpacks.
