Tribal print shorts and other clothes are very on trend this summer. I really wanted a pair of shorts like these, so I bought second hand jeans did a little DIY magic on them! For more also check out my new blog. Now to the tutorial..
Find your old pair of white or any light colored jeans or go and buy them second hand, I got this pair for just 1 euro, so it is cheap! Then cut them into shorts.
Get a ruler and a pencil and mark a row dots as in the picture. Leave about 3 cm space in between, and another row of dots about 2 cm under each dot.
Sew a crossing pattern from dot to dot with a zigzag stitch. You should get one row of the black pattern. Then leave enough space in between, repeat the last step and sew another pattern in the same way. I decided to go with a simple triangle pattern in the middle but you can do what pleases you.
Grab some fun colored threads and sew in the triangles and squares.
Cut off all the excess threads and you have got yourself an awesome new pair of shorts!
