How do I do this particular leg elastic ( and waistband)? (Moderated by EleanorSews)
Posted on: 9/14/17 6:51 PM ET
I am a beginner and was wandering how in particular this leg elastic is done and the waistband. I have done many but I would just like to identify which technique this is as I particularly like the style. Thank you in anticipation of your help .

Is this what you are trying to make?

It looks like it is a casing, with a second row of stitching so the elastic is not right on the edge. My guess is that the elastic would be 12mm wide at the waist (25mm casing) and 6mm wide (15cm casing) on the leg.
I found this tutorial which might help if you are wanting a lined version. The original page was in Spanish, so some of the text may not translated well. But I think the photos should help.
