SPRING SHORTS
ISSUE 27
PAY WHAT YOU CAN!
Here at Peppermint, we’re passionate about all things craft, creativity and community, which is why we’ve invested so much into our gorgeous sewing patterns over the years!
We’d love to keep these patterns accessible to all, however, we are a small business (it’s our superpower!). If you’d like to support our patterns initiative, we’re inviting you to pay what you can. If you are unable to donate at this time, you can choose the free version and be added to our monthly newsletter. We ♡ our sewing community!

If you haven’t made these super-cute and easy-to-wear elastic-waist shorts before, get to it! They’re made for those on-the-go days that call for comfort. A quick and simple make with a gently curved hemline and a relaxed, adjustable fit, these shorts have a paperbag waist detail and practical side pockets that you’ll love. Whether you’re popping to the market or meeting friends for lunch, this short and sweet sew is sure to turn out a weekend wardrobe staple!
The Spring Shorts pattern was created for us in 2015 by Pattern Runway, a company that has sadly closed. The pattern has been incredibly popular but we know it had very limited sizing, and so, drum roll, we’re happy to say we have worked with a local pattern grader to have the sizing updated. It has now been graded for our current size range, from A-P! That’s 16 sizes – hoorah!!!
We asked Shannon, the sewing extraordinaire behind @Pins_And_Tonic, to whip up a pair in midweight 100% Certified Organic Hemp (in Kale) from The Fabric Store. Doesn’t she look gorgeous?! Grab yourself the updated pattern – don’t forget to tag @PeppermintMagazine #PeppermintPatterns and #PeppermintSpringShorts to share your makes!
