Whether headed to the beach or the backyard, every man will love having a unique pair of swim shorts! Jonathan’s are best made with board short fabric and mesh lining (both found at your local fabric store), and they feature an elastic waist with optional drawstring, Velcro flap side pockets with drain holes, and an optional full lining for extra comfort. The pattern has separate rise for front and back, plus an optional low-cut line in front for those who want to wear the waistband under the belly.  The pattern also includes instructions for adjusting for tall or short lengths. If you don’t have board short fabric on hand, you could also use woven or knit fabric.  Jonathan’s swim shorts are super comfy and will have you set for the pool or beach in no time!
