A hand holding a crochet hook and partially crocheted shorts with red and white stripes on a bed with a white quilt. There is a ball of cream-colored yarn in the background.

Striped Shorts

  • These shorts were born out of a need for a last minute 4th of July outfit and they ended up going a little viral! They’re comfy, customizable, and the perfect addition to any summer wardrobe

  • Video tutorials below!

  • How do they fit/feel?

    • I made mine short 🤭 and they were comfortable (not itchy/hot!)

    Do they stretch?

    • A bit, yes! That’s why I added elastic to the waist (keeps the shape in tact)

    Do you need elastic?

    • Nope! You can skip it or use elastic thread, a long chain woven through to tie, etc. Choose your own adventure!

    Are they washable?

    • Yes if you also use acrylic: gentle cycle, cold water, air dry/tumble on low
