I am making some bicycle lycra shorts. Should the most stretch go up and down, or side to side? I've reviewed the pattern and don't see a recommendation.
Thanks. Perry

I did some more looking and found my answer on the pattern. It wasn't in the literature or written instructions, it was on the pattern piece itself.

I'm curious now as to which way goes the stretch? :-)

So Perry, please share the information. Then we'll all know if we don't already. Juno
In the case of this pattern, the bigger stretch goes around my, er, uh, arse. So stretch goes side to side, not up and down in this pattern..I've worked with Lycra before, but it's been a while...had to get my bearings. Perry
Thanks! Juno
