You can choose hand-stitching or machine sewing:
- For hand sewing, use an invisible stitch (also known as a blind hem stitch). Insert the needle into the folded edge and catch only a tiny bit of the pant fabric. Continue around the hem.
- For machine sewing, run a straight stitch close to the folded edge.
Remove pins as you go and smooth the fabric to avoid puckering.
5. Final Touch
Once the sewing is done:
- Iron the hem again for a crisp, professional finish.
- Try on the pants to double-check the length and fit.
Done!
With just a few simple tools, you’ve tailored your pants to the perfect length—no seamstress needed.
