I recently tested the new Baseball Boxers pattern by Meyraki Patterns (formerly PickleToe Patterns). They are a super quick sew! I normally make functional boxers (found here), but my oldest son is too big for the pattern now. I actually had to buy him underwear….oh, the horror! Fortunately, this pattern has solved my problem. It comes in sizes up to 16.
This pattern is great for scraps – the front and back panels don’t take up much fabric. The legs require a little more, but I was able to use mostly scraps for these and still end up with decent looking boxers.
I chose the easiest options for testing – unlined and unhemmed (actually that wasn’t part of the testing, but I rarely hem knit underwear – it doesn’t ravel and it seems like it’s just a wasted step). The are several options for leg length – I made the shorter length (stripes) and longer length (solid). There’s also an option to band them.
There are a couple options for the waistband too. If you have plush back elastic, you can do an exposed elastic waist. I did not have any, so my elastic is enclosed. Both are super quick!
Grab the pattern while it’s on sale plus the WHOLE site is on sale at 60% off with purchase of $10 or more in your cart.
