this is a cropped version of the orange anitas i made a few weeks ago. i like everything except of that somehow they ended up to big. i didn’t want to add belt loops because i didn’t want anything to take away from the fancy stitching i did but now they keep on falling down so i think i will have to add them after all. i tried to make them smaller by crossing the front a little more, also because the fly stuck out a little but something just doesn’t look quite right. the hoodie i bought but embroidered myself (see earlier creation). i like the pants but i think i’m now done with pants for a while.

I love them. They have a kind of lederhosen style, with those neat-shaped front pockets…
