Simplicity 8229 is now an out-of-print (OOP) pattern. If you can find it, it is one that I highly recommend. I've made more than a few pairs of cotton panties for myself and others over the years using this pattern. It is my absolute go-to and trusted pattern for this project.
The fabric and elastic are pulled from the stash. The fabric is a light yellow cotton knit from the now closed Mitchell Fabrics. The blue picot elastic was sourced from Marshall / Northwest Fabrics many years ago.
This is the first pair of a batch that I plan to make. On that note, I should get back to work.
