Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I needed some compressions for soccer, but i wasn’t about to pay 25 bucks at Scheels! I made these for about 3 dollars! Fabric from Hancock, pattern from a kwiksew book, mid-rise short spandex. They fit great and don’t ride up! :) Good for volleyball also!
Comment if you want the pattern!

I see the size Small calls for elastic measurement of 24". I am thinking I will need a size Medium or Large. Have you created PDF of larger sizes, or can you tell me how to extrapolate the existing size Small pattern successfully?
Mar 31, 2012, 04.33 AMby danii97
Its actually pretty easy to adjust the sizing, if you just bring out the edges evenly on all the sides it should fit just right because stretch is forgiving :)

Do you have a pattern for a size large?
Mar 12, 2012, 05.40 AMby RiverBile
Me! I would like the pattern! I feel the same way about buying athletic wear, I’m not about to pay that much for that little fabric! PFF.
