As it goes with toddlers, they can grow a size overnight. And most likely, that grow spurt will occur right before you leave on holiday, so that all of a sudden you run out of fitting shorts.

Insert – what else – Zonen 09. Pattern: Pim.

Because I had to move fast, I went for the simple model. No pockets, no loops. And since a simple version goes very fast, I made 3.

Pim really stole my heart. The shorts are rather – well – short, and that’s what makes me go all melancholic about them. They show me that my boy is growing taller and taller, but they also show me what’s left of those cute baby buttocks that I love to squeeze.
