This week I made some leggings for Miss M. I used a stripey fabric I found at a local store, and some leftover jersey knit from the Ice Cream Dress.
I followed this baby tights tutorial, and it really was as easy as it looks. Only difference is that I cut off the feet of one pair to make leggings.
I’ve learned a few things about working with knits recently. First, they make special needles for stretchy fabrics! Who knew? And second, there is a special stitch for working with them – looks kind of like a zigzag, but a little slopier. I hadn’t clued in to what it was for.
FYI: Leggings are good for jumping.
I’ve also been working on my quilt, so hopefully I’ll have some in progress photos of that soon too.
Those are adorable! So envious of your skills.
Oh my!! Those are super cute! (And so is the babe of course!)
