I can't wait for you to see how these granny square shorts came together. I made them using the spectacular "linen stitch," which creates a fabric that doesn't have those big open gaps that you're used to seeing in granny squares. So you can confidently wear these out and about as shorts! (And not just as a bathing suit coverup). You might find the flattering arrangement of these squares a stroke of genius, with the addition of a hexagon motif and a triangle. Even better, they have an ELASTIC WAISTBAND for a perfect fit. Ready to give these shorts a try?
