Suggested Fabrics:

• •Main fabrics (side panels, plus center panel for plain option): medium weight fabric with at least 40% stretch.
  • Cotton lycra, ribbed knit, bamboo work great. Natural fiber will breathe better, however, double brushed poly will also work.
• •Leakproof option (center panel): Please see the tutorial on page 5 for detailed fabric options and the blog post HERE. For maximum absorbency get each of the following in the center panel yardage:
  • 1- (Lining) Moisture-wicking jersey with at least 40% stretch
  • 2- (Innerlining) An absorbent quilted or dimple cotton/bamboo (different absorbency options available) Alternatively, a few layers of french terry can be used. Needs at least 30% stretch
  • 3- (Main, will be seen on outside) Waterproof backed jersey or STRETCH PUL with at least 30% stretch
• •Band Fabric- band fabric needs to have at least 50% stretch and 5% lycra. If it doesn’t have a good recovery, you’ll find the briefs will fall and sag with wear during the day. Cotton lycra and ribbing work best.

Notions:

• •3/8″ clear elastic or 3/8″ swim elastic for hemming leg openings
• •Enclosed elastic waistband option- 1″ knit elastic
• Optional: knit twin needle
• •Basics: thread, pins or clips, scissors, ruler, hem gauge, and marking tool. Ballpoint, stretch, or jersey needle.
