Girls' Shorts 31 — gathered shorts with side ties
Shorts pattern with a gathered waist, adjustable side ties and a ribbed texture, for girls' summer and beach lines.
Fitted shorts with the whole surface gathered and an elasticized waist, with cords coming out of each side seam to adjust the leg length. The hem ends in a point from the effect of the tie.
They produce well in rib or a shiny morley knit, stretch fabrics that hold the gathering without losing shape. It is a summer-season piece for girls' lines, sold as a set with other colors as seen in the reference. Sew the side gathering with inner elastic so the tie does not loosen with use.
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.
