Fehr Trade - PDF Sewing Pattern - Tenacity Leggings

The Tenacity Leggings sewing pattern from Fehr Trade is a beginner-friendly way to start making your own activewear. Designed for a close, compression-style fit, these leggings have no side seam to interrupt bold prints, a wide high-rise waistband with hidden elastic and an optional crotch gusset for greater freedom of movement.

Choose from full-length leggings, capri leggings or banded biker shorts, then add optional features as your skills develop. You can include a wide wraparound mesh pocket or a discreet back pocket, giving you useful storage for running, workouts and everyday activewear.

The pattern is suitable for Beginners with some garment sewing experience, and you don't need previous experience sewing stretch fabrics or activewear. Start with the basic leggings, then use the optional features to build your skills:

Beginner: Basic leggings, capris or shorts without pockets

Upskill: Crotch gusset for learning how to insert a gusset

Upskill: Back pocket for working with stretch mesh

Upskill: Mesh pocket for working with stretch mesh and Foldover Elastic (FOE)

The pattern is drafted with negative ease for a close fit similar to ready-to-wear compression styles. The shorts finish 12cm (4 3/4in) above the knee, while the capri length finishes 8cm (3 1/8in) below the knee.

The Tenacity waistband is also interchangeable with the waistband from the Fehr Trade Rouleur Leggings, allowing you to mix and match the two patterns for additional options.
