My good friend joyolivia has been assiduously collecting old cashmere sweaters from Village Thrift for me for the past couple of months, while I have been staring at them timidly, wondering how I should reconstruct them. Boyshorts could provide a small project that might give good experience in reconstructing cashmere sweaters. A while back Banana Republic was selling cashmere boyshorts as PJs and the looked just lovely. I only really have a couple of pairs of boyshorts, and am not confident in my ability to trace a pattern - does anyone know of a pattern or have any advice for coming up with one?

Posted by: Jolt at January 14, 2004 8:47 AMDo you have any patterns for pajama pants? You could just use that pattern and alter it for your shorts. Mmm, cashmere shorts. I made a scarf and mittens set out of an old cashmere sweater a couple months ago. My sister love them. Best of luck with your project!
