Suggested Fabrics:

• •Main fabrics: Medium-weight knit fabric with at least 50% stretch.
  • •Cotton lycra, bamboo lycra, stretch mesh, jersey, or ribbed knits work great. Natural fiber will breathe better, and I highly suggest at least the crotch lining; however, double brushed poly or other poly blends will also work.
• •Waistband options:
  • •Knit Waistband: band fabric needs to have at least 50% stretch and 5% lycra. If it doesn’t have good recovery, you’ll find the shorties will fall and sag with wear during the day. Cotton lycra and ribbing work best.
  • •Enclosed elastic waistband option: 1″ knit elastic, plus knit waistband fabric (listed above)
  • •Exposed elastic waistband option: 1″-2″ soft knit waistband elastic
  • •Lace waistband option: Stretch lace. Any width 1″ or wider will work. Wider lace will provide more coverage and a higher rise. Narrower lace will hit lower.
•  Leg line options (note- the knit leg band option will give the most coverage):
  • •Knit bands: same fabric requirement as knit waistband above
  • •Picot option: 3/8″ or 1/2″ picot elastic
  • •Lace option: 1/2″-2″ wide stretch lace

Notions:

• •Optional: knit twin needle
• •Basics: thread, pins or clips, scissors, ruler, hem gauge, and marking tool. Ballpoint, stretch, or jersey needle.
