    This is witchcraft istg. I almost returned these beige trousers I bought because not only are they an inch too long but the stitches are invisible so I thought I wouldn't be able to shorten it like I usually would. Thank god I found this video tho, LIFESAVER

    This is the tricky stitch.It`s loose enough to keep the hem tidy but can move as well ,like a ship`s anchor . Best trouser vote from me .

    Thank You! Why is the needle so sharp on both ends? It hurts my fingers a lot. The pants are a dark color so maybe no one will see all the little spots of blood.

    THIS is the place where nano carbon muscle in fabric helps if placed in key areas the persons body heat compresses the fabric to be gathered automatically or in the case where you dont want bagginess the coolness can be made to react to the nano carbon muscle fiber too both shrinking and expanding models are made.

      Can also cut with pinking shears or turn over raw edge and sew down by hand or machine. Since it will be turned over one more time to stitch the blind hem, sewn raw edge will not show.

    What's the point of sewing the folded edge? It doesn't look like you use that when you actually fold up the edge?

    • @aerialkate
      @aerialkate 6 лет назад

      bone_doc To stop the material fraying. The stitches are sewn closer together on a machine and are therefore more secure, but if you don't have access to a machine then you can use this technique. Or even avoid sewing the edge altogether, by just cutting the fabric using pinking shears (scissors with jagged blades) then ironing it well after folding. The jagged edge helps prevent fraying too.
