Burda Style For people who sew
 "Pin It")
Description
I needed new underwear, so I decided to take out some time and make a bunch. I ended up making 25 so for a while I felt like I was working in a sweatshop, but I’m pleased with the results.
Material Notes
Anything that has a bit of stretch to it and feels comfortable to the skin goes. The elastic I got a while ago [see: http://sartorialdiy.com/post/4254641196/custom-elastic-band-from-haining-thrive-braids]

dearest !!! i love love love your underwear (espicially the one with the colorfull pattern on the material! great job you did and thank you very much for sharing your pattern for it! BRAVO!!!

Love the colors! My hubby would love these. Is there a patter you would be willing to share or did you use a pair that fit you well? I have a hard time making a pattern from ready made items sometimes, just can’t figure it out. Great job!!! And you saved so much $$$, mens underwear, especially boxer briefs are pricey! Happy Sewing!

Here you go sweetie: http://sartorialdiy.com/post/4654979231/updated-boxers-pattern-bxr-m01b
They are based on a pair I had, but I’ve altered the pattern until it felt right :)

Thank you very much for the pattern! My husband looked at it and really liked it. Will have to try to make a pair at some point. And I agree with Ralf, I like the colorful ones the best.
