Instructions

1

Wear trousers and mark the length of the leg (up tomiddle of the heel). Place the product on the horizontal surface of the back half to yourself, on the pants should be visible white mark (bottom line). Then from this label measure out above 1.5 cm place the second (# 2) mark.

2

Take a square with a right angle and with respect toFront bend of trousers and label number 2, draw a straight line to the step joint, and then connect with the mark number 1. Leave the allowance for the folding of the product within 4-4.5 cm, since newly purchased pants after washing can shrink.

3

Stepping 4.5 cm down from the first line (bend allowance), draw a parallel cutting line, along which cut off excess fabric. Sweep the edge with stitches "zigzag" or on the sewing machine "overlock".

4

Tape the tape. Since the braid is made of natural and strong fibers, after water treatment it gives a strong tissue shrinkage. To further the bottom of the trousers is not wrinkled, you should carefully heat the ribbon. Carefully steal the braid with a very hot iron with a steam generator.

5

Or soak the braid in hot water and soak it onsome time, then dry it. Pin the processed ribbon to the fold of the leg. Sew on the sewing machine, laying a string on the braid at a distance from the edge of the strip of 0.1 cm. Hide the corners of the ribbon with a needle under the linen strip so that they are not visible on the front side.

6

Fold the allowance together with the attached ribbonOn the inside of the trousers. Make a roll by 0.1 cm so that the braid does not protrude from the front. Sweep the hem with temporary stitches. Sew the bottom of the trousers by hand with hidden stitches, bending the allowance by 0.5 cm.

7

It is better to use to fix the bentthe edge of the fabric of the bottom of the trousers is the elastic seam "goat", which seems to hide inside. Sewing is necessary, weakening the thread. This podgibke will become invisible from the front of the trousers. Iron out the trouser leg. Similarly, suture the second leg.

8

It is also possible to shorten (extend) trousers withUsing adhesive tape. Take the adhesive tape of a certain length, equal to the width of the trousers. Place the adhesive side of the tape on the wrong side of the leg. Glue it with a hot iron, ironing the soleplate on the paper side of the tape. So glue the entire width of the trousers.

9

Allow to cool, then separate the paper. Place the trouser leg on the sticky places and walk again with the steam iron. This method is faster than sewing, but it should be noted that after washing at a temperature above 40 ° C, the entire allowance will be peeled off and must be ironed again. This method allows you to instantly change the length of trousers, if you change shoes on the heel.
