Okay, we've done Raglan Top, Leggings, Knit Top... What's next in serger classes? How about wide leg yoga pants! Slightly flowy legs, slash pockets, a separate waistband, grommets for a drawstring.

Also, the perfect place to perfect making pockets on knits, attaching separate elastic casings, and incorporating set-in metal eyelets (think corsets). Darn it! There we go again - slipping in increasingly advanced serger techniques into something fun and wildly wearable. Shame on us... right?
