What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?

I like that the piecing on the legs adds interest, and Duncan likes that the pockets are easy to get his hands in!

Fabric used

twill/denim

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made or would recommend

I left off the pocket flaps, just because I preferred the way they looked without, and added a ribbed waistband with elastic, because I find that style waist fits my skinny toddler better.

Yes

Would you recommend this pattern to others?

Yes

Any additional comments

This is a very straightforward shorts pattern- would be good for boys or girls, depending on fabric choices.
