The Black shorts in the pictures are made with Cascade Fixation as color 1 and Katia Jaipur Sock Yarn as color 2 (pink/orange/beige).
The Beige shorts in the pictures are made with Sirdar Cotton DK as color 1 and color 2 Schoeller Fortissima Cotton Stretch.
Other yarn suggestions for color 1 and 2> Valeria di Roma Elastic, Rosas Crafts Stretch, PaintBox Yarns Cotton DK, Rico Creative Essentials Cotton DK, King Cole Bamboo Cotton DK, Schachenmayr Catania, Alize Diva Stretch double stranded (notice, when doubled, you need double amount of meters). Notice, that with stretchy yarn, you might need less, than mentioned in the instructions.
For color 2 also works fine/2/sport/light - 4ply/fingering weight yarn> for example Milla Mia Naturally Soft Cotton, Cascade Ultra Pima, Yarns and Colors Must-Have, Regia Cotton Tutti Frutti, Rico Baby Cotton Soft Print DK.
*Crochet hook for the ribbing around the waist: 4mm/F-G/5-6. Hook for the lower part 5mm/H/8. Check the gauge and use any hook!
*Optional> Thin elastic string 1.20m-1.80m (or more if you want to go around the waist more than once). When done with Cascade Fixation, I didn’t need to add any extra elasticity to the waist. But when wearing, it can keep the shape better for long time, if elastic is added.
I am happy to help if, you have any problems with the pattern or you have any questions!
