They can all play together well if they are pre-shrunk, and are of similiar weight. I personally would not make shorts out of any fabric with a high linen content. The wrinkles, as the garment is worn in this case specifically in the groin area, are not very becoming/flattering.
That's great to know. I figured the cotton and the linen would probably work together, but hadn't thought of pre-shrinking.
