Satisfying scraps

I’ve made this pattern about six times now and would definitely recommend it. Although the instructions don’t say so, almost all of the seams can be burritoed (it’s  a real word) for a lovely neat finish. As you can see, the pattern lends itself to using up scraps. I’ve used both cotton and viscose knits, and combinations of the two, with no difficulty.  Most of it can be done on an over locker which makes it even quicker.  I did size down to get a less ‘boxery’ fit, but it’s easy to modify the fit really.

Only reason I’ve given four stars is that the price is quite high for a single garment pattern, but given that I’ve used it multiple times, I think it’s very justifiable.

It’s a great way to recycle t shirts or use up the scraps from other projects – who doesn’t love one-of-a-kind underwear?
