About The Peachy Pants
The Peachy Pants are a must-have in every summer wardrobe & perfect for hot summer days & nights. The high waist & flared look gives them the appearance of a skirt while allowing you to move as freely as if you´re wearing shorts.

About the pattern
The shorts are knit in the round from the top down. First you will start by knitting the hem and then work in stockinette stitch while increases are worked. The two legs are knitted separately and loosely bound off to give them more width.

Level of difficulty:
Beginner

Sizes:
XS (S) M (L) XL (XXL) 3XL (4XL)

Size guide:
To make sure which size fits best, measure both your waist & your hips. The shorts are high waisted and have a flared fit. If you are between two sizes, I would recommend sizing down, as the shorts have a relatively large positive ease. If your waist & hips are two different sizes, I would recommend paying more attention to the waist size as the flared fit offers enough room.

Waist (narrowest part of your upper body, usually just above belly button): 61-66 (67-74) 75-82 (83-88) 89-94 (95-99) 100-106 (107-112) cm
Hip (widest part of lower body, around the buttocks): 84-91 (92-98) 99-104 (105-109) 110-113 (114-116) 117-121 (122-126) cm

Measurements of the finished piece:
