The Nixie+Trixie Bundle

$27.00

Get the best of both worlds and combine your love for unique, comfortable, full bum coverage undies by purchasing both Trixie and Nixie in one go!

 

Update your undie drawer, safe in the knowledge that plumber’s crack, hungry bum and drab undies are a thing of the past.

Both Trixie and Nixie come with your choice of either Hipster or High Waist Briefs – instructions are included for finishing with fold over elastic (FOE) as well as lingerie elastic.

The high-waist style are perfect for pairing with fit’n’flare dresses and high waisted skirts and pants. As they sit at the true waist, they would also make the perfect 50s bikini bottom when made up in a swim lycra as well as the perfect lounge pant paired with a cropped lacy dressing gown.

Nixie’s delicate overlapped side curves can be overlapped either to the front or the back on both variations, making them a quick, satisfying and unique make.

 

Skill Level

Nixie+Trixie are the perfect undie pattern for confident beginners. Take your time with Nixie’s side curves and use a Tricot (or wide zig-zag) stitch around the elastic for both versions – you’ll have the prettiest and comfiest pair of knickers you’ve ever worn.

 

Fabric Options

The Nixie+Trixie Briefs should be made with stable knit fabrics that have a good amount of stretch across the grain. A minimum of 30% stretch is recommended for best results as Nixie+Trixie has built-in negative ease. A fabric with 4-way stretch is the best choice for maximum comfort.

Cotton/lycra (spandex/elastane) combinations work well for light-weight, breathable briefs, but other options include stretch lace/mesh, stretch rayon knits, power mesh etc.

The Nixie+Trixie Briefs were drafted using a 95% cotton 5% lycra spandex knit with a weight of 180GSM (grams per square metre).

I recommend using a breathable natural fabric like stretch cotton or bamboo for the gusset liner.

For more in depth information on choosing knit fabrics, please see here and here (though these were made for The Gable Top & Juniper Cardigan, the same fabrics were used for drafting these patterns).
