Princess Jenny 6/28/06Wow, what a great deal!!! My dh is into cycling so I can appreciate how expensive those bike shorts are RTW. Thank you so much for reviewing these! I'm happy to learn they can be made easily.

Ronda65 6/28/06My DH is into cycling, too and I've wondered about this pattern and the one from Green Pepper. I'll have to try one out!

Peggy L 6/28/06Sounds like this pattern is a winner! Good review.

Luckylibbet 6/29/06I can't bring up your photo? I am getting ready to sew my DH skating shorts, very similar to bike shorts but without the padding, so want to absorb as much info as I can!

carolhope 6/29/06I'm sorry, Luckylibbet. I do not have a photo, and, as I said in the review, they are black and would not show well anyway. I made the bike pants exactly as the pattern instructed, but changed the shape of the padding. I used 6 oz. lycra with 75% stretch, polyester thread, a universal needle, and a very narrow zig zag stitch. Any other questions?

AnneM 7/26/06Congrats on the shorts. It's nice to make something that is appreciated and useful.
