Footed Tights sewing pattern - baby, toddler, teen (0-14 years)

Here’s your chance to make a set of Footed Tights for a baby, a toddler or a teen up to 14 years old.

These tights look great and are perfect for school uniforms, playground tumblers, little crawlers and everyone in between. You can dress up with airy lace tights or bundle up with warm winter worthy pantyhose made from a sweater. Or you can even add trim to accentuate your one of a kind legwear. There are endless possibilities.

The tights can be made from any knit fabric with at least 25% stretch (a stretch gauge is included in the pattern). This means cotton lycra, stretch lace, stretch chiffon, polyblend, rayon spandex etc are all good choices.

The tights are easy and quick to make. The pattern can be made from print to sew in one hour. This pattern is beginner friendly and offers skills to learn such as French seams and how to ruffle or ruche fabric.
