How to sew a waistband for leggings – yoga waistband and wide elastic waistband options

Hey y’all, today I’m sharing two ways to sew waistbands for leggings. First I’ll show you how to make a yoga waistband, then I’ll show you how to make a wide waistband with thin elastic, which is my preferred style to wear.
To see how to make both styles, watch the video below. You can also watch on YouTube here if it won’t load for some reason.
This post is the third part of the series on leggings. To draft the basic leggings pattern, check out this post. For fabrics to use for leggings, see this post.
