Girls' Shorts 18 — shorts with cargo pockets and elasticized waist

Ribbed-knit shorts pattern with side cargo pockets and a wide elasticized waist, for urban and basics lines for girls.

Comfortable-fit shorts with a wide elasticized waist and no drawcord, applied cargo pockets on each thigh and a ribbed texture across the whole surface. The hem is straight and the length reaches mid-thigh.

They produce well in morley knit or a good-weight rib, which holds the shape of the cargo pockets without distorting with use. It is a high-turnover basic for girls' lines in several colors, and pairs with plain t-shirts or tank tops from the same line. Sew the wide waist with a double elastic so it does not roll with washing.

It comes in 9 sizes (2 to 18) with the industrial grading already done: pick the sizes you need on the product page, or buy the full size range in one go. Delivered as an A4 PDF to print at home and a true-scale plotter PDF (90, 120 or 150 cm wide); DXF/AAMA, Optitex (PDS), marker (MRK) or Audaces (ADS) files for cutting directly in CAD are available on request. Digital download within 24 hours of payment confirmation.

Professional sewing pattern for girls, approved with a sewn sample, with the full industrial size range available. Sizes are chosen on the product page (the base price covers the standard size selection and each extra size adds a small surcharge); the CAD formats include the full size range.
