The Limestone Leggings and Top are knit foundation pieces for every season. With multiple views and leg lengths, the Limestone leggings are an activewear workhorse for many activities. The curved pockets provide a playful and practical element while the contoured waistband and carefully placed seams support comfortable movement and fun color-blocking potential. The pattern also features a crotch gusset for ease of movement and increased comfort due to the reduction of bulky seams.
Suggested Fabrics: medium to heavy weight knit fabrics with 50% stretch and a strong recovery. Performance knits would also be a great choice for this pattern.
