SPRING SHORTS
ISSUE 27
PAY WHAT YOU CAN!
If you haven’t made these super-cute and easy-to-wear elastic-waist shorts before, get to it! They’re made for those on-the-go days that call for comfort. A quick and simple make with a gently curved hemline and a relaxed, adjustable fit, these shorts have a paperbag waist detail and practical side pockets that you’ll love. Whether you’re popping to the market or meeting friends for lunch, this short and sweet sew is sure to turn out a weekend wardrobe staple!
The Spring Shorts pattern was originally created for us in 2015 by Pattern Runway, a company that has since closed. The pattern has been incredibly popular but we knew it had very limited sizing, and so, drum roll, we’re happy to say we have worked with a pattern grader to have the sizing updated. It has now been graded for our current size range, from A-P! That’s 16 sizes – hoorah!!!
We asked Shannon, the sewing extraordinaire behind @Pins_And_Tonic, to whip up a pair in midweight 100% Certified Organic Hemp (in Kale) from The Fabric Store. Doesn’t she look gorgeous?! Grab yourself the updated pattern – don’t forget to tag @PeppermintMagazine #PeppermintPatterns and #PeppermintSpringShorts to share your makes!
