As part of my current shorts enthusiasm, here is a Do-It-Yourself Pattern to these awesome Tribal Motif shorts thanks to Paula at Into the Wild. The website is in Spanish, but Google provides a convenient translation option at the top of the page, usually. She does the sketching on a pair of white jeans, but here is the option for dip-dyeing a  darker denim
