IRIS – TILLY & THE BUTTON 

Learn to sew your own undies with this multi-style knickers pattern, created in collaboration with our favourite lingerie designer Evie La Lùve.

The step-by-step photo instructions and helpful tips make this a great project for lingerie novices.

Incredibly versatile, the mix-and-match sewing pattern includes a choice of low, mid and high legs and waistlines. They can be finished with fold over elastic and/or narrow stretch lace, depending on your style, making a total of 36 combinations!
