shorts

Finally, I did some sewing again. The pattern of these shorts is from the latest Ottobre issue.

I really like the way they turned out. Because of the checkers, I had to cut the fabric carefully, but it all came together well.

I enlarged the pockets, because I was not pleased with the size of the pockets of a pant I made earlier (from the summer issue of last year). I left out some fancy details, like beltloops and extra stiches, because I thought these pants don't need them.

I'm definately going to use this pattern again. In the mag the longer version of the pants are combined with a shirt with frogs. And guess what: I bought that fabric a couple of month ago!

What a nice suprise to see it turned into a garment.

Wishing you had a fruitful weekend as well,
