The Avery Leggings are a simple-to-sew classic, everyday leggings pattern with unique features to make them extra special. They have no outer leg seam which gives a really smooth appearance. They also have a clever crotch gusset which helps to improve the fit and gives you improved range of motion.
There's also a double layer waistband with enclosed and stabilised elastic which will support your tummy and stop the leggings from falling down - win, win!
Choose between a mid-rise waist or ultra-high waist for extra comfort. There's also two lengths to choose from depending on the finish you want. These are the most comfortable pair of leggings that can be worn anywhere and make a great wardrobe staple.
To make these leggings even more special we've included our amazing low-pill micro modal jersey fabric in this kit. The properties of this fabric will keep your leggings looking great for years to come.
Wear your Averys under your favourite dresses or tunic tops or slouch around at home in comfort with a cosy jumper. Or fancy a bit of gentle yoga stretching? Don't worry - these leggings can easily handle it!
Each kit includes enough fabric to make two pairs of leggings.
The fabric for this kit is available in three colours: midnight navy, black and bosenberry. Each kit includes a pair of these fabrics allowing you to make two lovely pairs of leggings!
This micro modal jersey fabric has been knitted and dyed in the UK for us here at g&g. It's been specially selected for its qualities of amazing smoothness, thickness and low pilling.
Made from 92% modal and 8% elastane it's super stretchy for extra comfort. Its weight is 280gsm giving great coverage over your knees and derrière. The way the fibre has been twisted means the fabric does not pill easily, leaving your leggings looking smooth and slick for many washes and wears to come!
The full size range of this pattern is US0/2 up to US 32/34. This is a waist measurement range of 24" - 52" and hip measurement range of 33"- 62".
All options of the kit will have the same pattern print out and files containing all sizes but if you are making a size 24 or above, select the 'up to sizes 34' option to ensure you have enough fabric.

This pattern is aimed at an advanced beginner.
It is simple to construct and can easily be completed on a regular sewing machine using a stretch and zig zag stitch. If you are new to stretchy jersey fabrics and have some confidence in sewing you'll be fine with this project!
To complete this project successfully you'll need a regular sewing machine along with Lauren's essential recommended sewing tools.
An Overlocker is useful for finishing off the seam allowances, but is not essential, the garment can easily be made completely on a regular sewing machine using a stretch stitch.
