Hey all you cool people! It's time for another amazing pattern release: The Simpatico Leggings!
These are a simple, quick sew with only two pieces and a waistband, but even though they're pretty straightforward construction, they are far from basic with the legendary Greenstyle fit and three length options: Petite, Standard, and Tall sizes! We wanted to make these the perfect beginner friendly sewist pattern and take any guesswork out of lengthening/shortening, so in addition to the 3 length options, there are also simple lengthen/shorten lines to make finding the perfect fit even easier!
This pattern calls for any knit fabric that has at least 50% stretch. Use your favorite Cotton Lycra, Brushed Polyester, Supplex, Performance Fabric, etc. Make sure you prewash your fabric to get any potential shrinkage or dye runoff out of the way. This pattern takes anywhere between 1 and 1 5/8 yards of fabric depending on size made, and covers our B-M size chart listed below.
The Simpatico Leggings will be on sale for $8.50 until March 22, after which it will return to full price of $12.
Now it's time to show off all the amazing work our testers did with the Tester Roundup! Show them a little love!
