I had a length of some scuba fabric from Spotlight and was planning to make a dress with it. But then after kayaking I got to thinking it would be nice to have some scuba kayaking pants.
So I decided to make both the Anima pants and some Virginia leggings and see how they would come out. I suspected that the Virginia leggings would be too tight, because the scuba fabric tends to have a lot less give compared to other types of fabric.
I was right. I used the same sizes I have been using lately: XXS in the Anima pants, and XS in the Virginia leggings, with the high waistband and the petite sizing.
Above: are all Anima pants. Below: are all Virginia leggings. The leggings honestly I can barely pull them on. They were a direct to op-shop kind of sew.
But the Anima pants are great, and will definitely be my kayaking pants for the rest of this winter!
