How To Add Pockets To Leggings

"Learn how to add a pocket to leggings to hold your phone or keys. It’s annoying not having pockets, and this is a simple way to add a center back waistband pocket. I loved having leggings to wear, but they didn’t have any pockets. It’s so annoying not having pockets! I often listen to a podcast or audiobook as I run so I NEEDED a pocket. I added the simplest center back pocket just under the waistband, and you can do it too!"
