Lily knit leggings pattern
Every kid needs at least one pair of leggings (or a dozen) and that’s what we have brought you today – a great leggings sewing pattern you can sew up in no time!
Here’s a sewing pattern for some kids leggings in 7 different sizes, from waist 20-23 inches (51-58cm). This legging pattern is easy and quick for the sewer while the leggings themselves are easy and comfy to wear. The leggings come with an elastic waist but without a side seam.
You can create a fashionable and fun legging for your child if you use an appliqué pattern. Add some fun 3d butterflies as shown, or maybe applique some fun knee pads or even some small patch pockets.
It’s recommended by the designer that you use Cotton Jersey with a 4-way stretch as your fabric. And as a fabric estimate, you will need 24″ to 29″ depending on size. You’ll also need elastic 16″ to 22″ depending on size.
