Don't we all love yoga pants? So much cuter than the sweatpants we all remember, whether we actually do yoga or not, these active-wear pants are great for lounging about the house, running to the grocery store, or actually doing some yoga. Feel free to have some fun with these basic knit pants--when you make your own, you aren't limited to the basic grays and blacks and blues offered in the stores. Go crazy!
My granddaughter has requested a pair of yoga pants for exercise class. I would have made this from a medium-to-heavyweight cotton fabric for yoga classes. What weight of cotton knit is recommended? Nehmah
I would suggest that the side seams of the yokes be stitched flat against the yoke fabric after being pressed flat. This makes threading the tape or cord easier especially if the cord wears out. I use half- or quarter-inch twill tape for drawstrings. Nehmah
Love this! I've used an old pair of yoga pants as a pattern before, but it'll be so nice to have a real pattern now! Thanks, Burda!
