Making straps for shorts:
- Divide the front of the shorts in half visually and count 7 stitches to the left from the center. Using a contrasting color yarn, single crochet (sc) 15 stitches, chain 1, turn and sc 15 stitches. Continue in this way for 6 rows.
- For the 7th row, sc 2, slip stitch (sl st) 7, sc 2.
- Fasten off and weave in the ends.
- Divide the back of the shorts in half visually, count 3 stitches to the left from the center, and using a contrasting color yarn, sc 7 stitches, chain 1, turn and sc 7 stitches. Then sc 6 stitches from the second stitch, chain 1, turn and sc 6 stitches, chain 1, sc 5 stitches from the second stitch, chain 1, turn and sc 5 stitches.
- Do not fasten off, instead chain 25 and sc across the chain until the end. This will be the strap. Attach the strap to the back of the shorts with 2 sc, then chain 25 and repeat the process for the other strap.
- Sew buttons to the front of the shorts and attach the straps to the buttons.
Note: An easier way to make the straps is to crochet a chain and sew it in a V-shape to the front of the shorts, and sew it to the 22nd row for the back.
