Leggings (Comfy Bits Garter Leggings)
Experience the ultimate in comfort and fit with our beautifully designed leggings pattern, featuring an exceptionally stretchy fabric with 3-5 inches of negative ease. These leggings provide just the right amount of garter stretch to ensure they never feel tight while being snug enough to prevent any sagging or slipping. To achieve your desired fit, simply select a size that is 3-5 inches smaller than your actual low waist measurement.
To create these stylish and functional leggings, you will need a set of US #2.5 knitting needles and your choice of fingering weight yarn. For optimum durability, we recommend using a sturdy fiber, as these leggings will undergo more friction compared to delicate shawls or scarves, ensuring they hold up well to everyday wear.
I completed a size medium using 3 full skeins of high-quality yarn. If you’re crafting a pair of capris, you can likely manage with just 2.5 skeins. The beauty of this pattern lies in its versatility—you can customize the length to your preference by stopping at any desired point, thanks to the symmetrical decreases down the legs. For those opting for Plus sizes, it's advisable to have at least 4 skeins on hand to ensure a perfect fit and finish.
Whether you're an experienced knitter looking for your next project or a beginner eager to learn, this leggings pattern accommodates various skill levels and is the perfect addition to your wardrobe.
