Textured knit shorts with drawcord waist sewing pattern for girls — Girls Shorts 8

Girls Shorts 8 is a digital sewing pattern for girls from the Moldey catalog: textured knit shorts with drawcord waist.
Straight, mid-length shorts with a wide elastic waistband that carries a drawcord at the front, finished with two knotted ends. They have side pockets with a slanted opening and a simple topstitched hem. The knit shows a pronounced honeycomb texture and the fit is relaxed, not tight at the leg.
A knit with body and some stretch, such as a cotton waffle knit, works best because the texture looks stable and keeps the straight shape. To keep the waistband from distorting, reinforce the spot where the drawcord comes out with a bar tack or a line of topstitching.
