    Thank you so much for this video. I have quite a few pairs to reduce down to a smaller size, since losing weight. I did not want to just take in the waist, as other channels show. This is an excellent way of taking them in - to make them even all the way round. Appreciate your time and effort to show us.

      You will be need to make a 1/2” hole at the middle of the center front then you can insert a drawstring through it. You can get a draw string from a tailor store or use a long shoe lace

    How do you determine the amount to remove?

    • @SneakersLibrary
      @SneakersLibrary  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hey Sarah, I measured my tight and hip circumference and also that of the sweatpants. Then I added 1.5 inches to my actual size measurements, then deduct it from the joggers.

    • @parisjaye4159
      @parisjaye4159 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ​@@SneakersLibrary
      so for example
      Thigh: 40"
      Pants Thigh: 45"
      40" + 1.5" = 41.5"
      45" - 41.5" = 3.5"
      Remove 3.5" from pants
      Is that correct?
      Same equation for the waistband?

    • @SneakersLibrary
      @SneakersLibrary  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi Paris.. 3.5 inches deduction is too much in my opinion. It’s a sweatpants and as such need some extra room.. if I were you I will deduct 1.5” from both inner tight (that’s if the crotch area is too big), remember you still need 1/4 as your sewing allowance. That’s your total 3.5.
      If the crotch area is fine then deduct from the side hems.
      But if you deduct 3.5” and another 1/4 on both sides as your sewing allowance, the pant might be too tight. It’s better you have some room available rather than having the pants too tight to fit.

    • @parisjaye4159
      @parisjaye4159 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      that makes sense! Thank you!
      So can you lay out your general reduction equation?
      Or was my above equation otherwise correct?
      Body measurement + 1.5" = X"
      Clothing measurement - X" = reduction amount"

    • @SneakersLibrary
      @SneakersLibrary  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes.. body measurements especially the hip/thigh measurement + 1.5” allowance on both sides then another 1/4” for sewing allowance. That’s all you need

Too much is speed by.... it s hard to see it when it flies too quickly. We learn step by step ....I learnt lots of tricks over the years by most sewers not speeding through the video, I really appreciated how you made look so easy thank you.

      Hi kriss, I apologies for that speeding. I didn’t know the video would be received well. I did the speeding to avoid boring my viewers. All you need is a safety pin 🧷 to pass the elastic through the loop, then sew the elastic together at both ends.
