Silk Sleep Shorts

Silk Sleep Shorts

Introducing a women's sewing pattern for silk sleep shorts, featuring a soft frilled elastic waist and a clean, easy-to-sew construction.

When To Wear

These versatile shorts are designed for comfort and ease, making them an ideal choice for:

• Loungewear & Homewear: Perfect for relaxing at home or comfortable everyday wear.
• Warm Weather Casual: Light and airy for staying cool during spring and summer days.
• Sleepwear: A soft and unrestrictive option for comfortable nights.

Key Design Features

Silhouette: Relaxed, short cut with a gentle flare, ensuring comfort and freedom of movement.

Waist: A soft elasticated waist with an integrated cut-on casing — the elastic sits below the folded top edge, so the fabric above it stands up into a delicate frill (paperbag effect) around the waist.

Length: Short, micro length for a light and airy feel.

Hem: A clean, simple turned hem at the leg opening.

Level Of Difficulty

Beginner. Involves basic straight stitching, creating an elastic casing, and simple hemming techniques.

Fabric Recommendations

Choose lightweight woven fabrics with a soft hand and good drape for fluid movement:

• Silk or silk-blend fabrics
• Batiste or other fine, lightweight wovens

Additional Supplies

• Elastic tape, equal to your waist circumference
