Child Size Crochet Shorts

"If you’ve ever thought of crocheting shorts for a baby, this pattern is for you! Whether you’re crocheting a pair of shorts for a newborn photo shoot, or to wear in the summer, or as a baby shower gift etc, these child size crochet shorts work up super fast and don’t take much yarn either! These adorable little shorts start at just newborn size and go all the way up to 12/14 youth. For these crochet shorts I am recommending a cotton yarn – or a cotton blend yarn. "
