\nWelcome to the first post in The Thrifty Kid series. Today I’ll be showing you how to refashion an unwanted top into a pair of child size leggings.<\/p>\n

This technique for how to make kids leggings is very versatile and can be used with an assortment of garments with long sleeves to make pants.<\/p>\n

I’ve made quite a few pairs of these leggings for Emma from jersey knit tops and even sweaters, garments with stretchy fabric works best.<\/p>\n

You can also use the same instructions to make track pants of you use a sweatshirt.<\/p>\n

I’ve named these the trapeze leggings because Emma looks spectacular wearing them on her flying trapeze!<\/p>\n
