From Peppermint Magazine, Issue 52:
Get ready to swing into sunny days with our latest free sewing pattern – the Peppermint Skye Shorts!
Collaborating with brilliant British patternmaker Mandi Bharij from Make With Mandi, we created a pair of shorts that are both glam and practical! Inspired by the dramatic swish of circle skirts, our version of swing shorts walks the line of fun and function with flow aplenty around the legs and hips – and pockets, of course! The curved front yoke paired with an elasticated back waistband is all class at the front, comfy at the back. Go on: get your legs out and make this simple sew so you can sashay into glorious warm-weather adventures.
Recommended Fabrics: Light- to medium-weight woven fabrics with drape such as viscose, cotton sateen, Cupro, rayon, silk, linen blends, etc.
Size Range: A-P, to fit hips from 35"-60" / 89-153 cm
