When I tripped and broke my arm, I couldn't manage my knicks, I couldn't push them off and I certainly couldn't pull them up. So I didn't wear any for years. Summer and winter, friends who knew asked whether I felt cold, but I didn't. I suppose I got used to it.
On one occasion, when I had a follow up hospital appointment in London. I did wear some, so we had some strange looks when Dh and I emerged from a disable loo together!
And these days I wear comfortable knickers from that store renown for its underwear, no, not Ann Summers but M&S!!
Is comfort your priority?

You are right. M & S are the only shop with comfortable underware. Happy Friday. Val
I sewed myself some pretty "French knickers" when I was a student. And 40 years later sewed some briefs with inbuilt pant-liners (now these are available everywhere, including M&S) But NEVER knitted knicks! I'd feel slightly insecure if I went without.I appreciate there are problems pulling them up for many people though.
I worked with someone who never wore pants.
Comfort all the way for me. I discovered Boody underwear - made from bamboo.
I've always bought my underwear from Marks & Spencer, I remember my mum always taking me there when I was little and I've carried on ever since.
I follow Boud as well, the woman who made the knickers. Such a talented woman with so much to share. I learn something from her every day!
Have a great day!
I'm definitely a big knicker girl who dresses for comfort. Sloggi every time here!
I always buy M&S underwear and in fact going there tomorrow to buy some new bras. Can't wear wired ones and the M&S ones are very comfy. I can remember wearing a knitted swimsuit, Gran's handiwork, and it was lovely until it got wet and sagged down to my knees! Xx
Thanks so much for the shoutouts! The undies are comfortable. I've made other pairs with knitted fabric, usually up cycled from knitted sheets, and this is my first shot at knitting my own fabric! They fit so much better than bought ones. It helps to be a small woman -- faster to finish! I just modeled the size and shaping on a pair of bought underwear, and it worked fine.
Comfort is definitely priority - I mean, why not. And, yes, M&S although Matalan does some comfortable stuff too amid the fashion. xx
Definitely comfort first! I'd feel exposed without knickers.
I go for comfort, too, although I buy from brands that are available here. When I was little, however, my mother sewed all my undies, because you couldn't buy any ready-made ones in that place, at that time! :)
