      Love these leggings
    Reviewed by Wanda M (✓ Verified Buyer) on 05/08/2024
    I have 3 granddaughters under 5 years old. I have used this Playtime Legging pattern to make 10 pairs of these leggings as well as 6 pairs of shorts. Everyone is happy with the result…the grandkids, my daughters and me. They were fun to sew and instructions were clear. I loved that the measurement for the elastic waist was clear and fit perfectly. Thank you again for a great pattern.

      Great Basic Leggings
    Reviewed by Rachel (✓ Verified Buyer) on 10/14/2019
    Lovely instructions and easy assembly. I had to modify the pattern for my skinny and tall daughter and it was simple since the pattern layout is so uncluttered. I added to the rise and to the length and got a perfect fit.

      Playtime leggings
    Reviewed by Carrie (✓ Verified Buyer) on 06/08/2017
    Excellent pattern! I've made three pairs already, my girls love them. I learnt how to hem with a twin needle too- easy peasy! As usual, O+S patterns come together really nicely with great instructions. Love it!

      Great Pattern
    Reviewed by Carol (✓ Verified Buyer) on 04/07/2017
    I have made multiple pairs of these leggings from this pattern for my two granddaughters. The fit is perfect! As with all of Liesl's patterns that I have sewn, the instructions are extremely well written, very clear, and easy to follow.

      Great and easy
    Reviewed by Amy (✓ Verified Buyer) on 01/04/2017
    I've made 4 pairs of leggings for my 3 year old daughter. She refuses to wear anything but leggings (can you blame her) and these are perfect. They are extremely easy to make and the instructions are very clear. Will be making many more in the future!

    These leggings are great. My 5-year-old doesn't want to take them off. I have made about 8 pairs and just can't stop.

      Thumbs up from my son in law
    Reviewed by Kathi (✓ Verified Buyer) on 12/02/2015
    I made these leggins for my 6 month old granddaughter. As usual with O&S patterns, the instructions were very clear and the pattern went together without a hitch. The fit, selected based on weight, was perfect.

    My son in law told me that they are easier to get on and off the baby than any other leg coverings in my granddaughter's wardrobe. I think that says it all - the design and pattern drafting is perfect.

      Perfect infant/toddler PJ pants!
    Reviewed by Enbee (✓ Verified Buyer) on 10/23/2015
    I purchased this pattern to make PJ leggings for my 15-month old son, and they fit the bill perfectly! They're a super-fast sew, especially on a serger. As usual, the pattern instructions are thorough and so helpful. I've made them as written, shortened to fit my son's short legs, shortened even further to add a ribbing cuff instead of hemming, and added a tail for a Halloween costume. Perfect every time!

      Great pattern
    Reviewed by Christine Keogh (✓ Verified Buyer) on 08/28/2015
    This is a simple pattern with complete and understandable instructions. It sews up very quickly. I also appreciate the inclusion of a glossary and advice on sewing machine settings. I made one change to the instructions: for leggings this small I do the bottom hems before I do the inside leg seam. This is because the ankle of the leggings won't fit the free arm on my sewing machine for me to sew the hem, if the leg is already sewn up.

      Love these leggings!
    Reviewed by Abbey Collier on 03/15/2015
    I made an adorable pair of leggings for my niece with these. I tried to make 2 larger sizes and I keep getting a crooked "butt"seam. I know I'm doing something wrong because this pattern made perfect leggings for my niece. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Sorry I know this isn't a forum. The pattern is great! My skills are not haha...

      Great fit
    Reviewed by Mary Coonts on 12/17/2014
    With this Oliver + S leggings the fit is spot on. I have made them for 3 of my granddaughters that are all different sizes and they all fit perfectly. I've made 5 pair so far. Great for the granddaughters that live where it is cold. I tried making leggings from one of the Big 4 patterns What a disaster. The rise was so long that she could pull them up to her armpits.

      lovely leggings
    Reviewed by Elena on 11/03/2014
    Overall, a very nice fit and the length is good too. I made this in 18-24 months for my big 1 year old and in 6 for my long-limbed 5 year old. My only complaint is that I don't think nappy allowance is included in the smaller sizes (?) Or am I missing something? I had to add 3 cm to the rise, back and front. Anyhow, would be good I think to add this information in the pattern - my eldest was properly potty trained at 3-3.5.
