I love a great fitting pair of shorts. Not only can the Okeanos be made as classic summer shorts, they also can double as board shorts with an optional swim liner. The elastic waist has the option for false front ties to give them a nautical look.Make them in one simple fabric, or do a version with two or three tiers. Add some hidden side seam pockets and a back patch pocket or two, and you’ve got a classic short that your child will live in all season long. This pattern comes with two length options: mid-thigh and slightly above the knee.
  • 3 Garment Options: Simple, 2-Tier & 3 Tier
  • 2 Garment Lengths: Mid-thigh Short and Knee Shorts.
  • Optional Swim Liner perfect for the water
  • Optional Tie Detail gives a fun nautical touch
  • Sewing Level: Confident Beginner
  • Sizes: 6 Months to 12 Years

Materials Needed

This pattern works perfectly for Wovenfabrics. You will need the following materials:

Woven Board Short Material - This material is lightweight and quick drying. It is designed with sun, sand and chlorine in mind to prevent fading. If you are making these shorts for regular wear instead of for swimming, a bottom-weight woven or regular quilting cotton can be used.

1” (2.5cm) Swim Elastic - While regular elastic may be used, swim elastic is recommended as it will last longer with use in chlorine and salt water. If you are making these shorts for regular wear instead of for swimming, braided elastic may be used

3/8” (1cm) Swim Elastic (For the Swim Liner leg openings)

Mesh Lining Fabric (For the Swim Liner or Inseam Pockets for Swim)

Fusible Woven Interfacing (For Optional Fake Front Ties and Patch Pocket Only)

2 - 1/4” (6mm) Metal Eyelets (For Optional Fake Front Ties Only)

7” (18cm) of 1/4” (6mm) Cording (For Optional Fake Front Ties Only)


The following materials are recommended:
Metal Eyelet Tool (For Optional Fake Front Ties Only)
