Unwrapping overalls with checkered texture

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I'm working on a character who is going to be wearing clothes that have a square pattern on. I'm really struggling to get a good uv map for this. I've uploaded a photo of the type of pattern I'm going for. It's not exactly that pattern but it's squares. So I need them to flow down the clothes in this way. Can anyone give me some tips on how to get the pattern like this on the legs? I'm not an expert at UV mapping and I'm really strugging with this. Any help would be great!! 😄

You need more uv seams. On the same place like on the real cloth.

It's not exactly the same, but you should be able to adapt most of this (particularly the part about the torso and legs) to suit your needs.
