To roll your pants at the ankle, you essentially create a cuff by folding the fabric upwards. According to the reference video, you start by pulling the bottom of your pants up, as if making a giant cup, then begin rolling them down, using the bottom hem as a guideline.
Here's a more detailed breakdown of the process:
Rolling Pants at the Ankle
Step | Description |
---|---|
1 | Gather the Fabric: Take the bottom of your pant leg. |
2 | Create the Cup: Pull the fabric up and outwards to form a small cup shape. |
3 | Start Rolling Down: Begin rolling the fabric down, using the bottom hem of your pants as your guide. |
4 | Adjust: Adjust the roll to your preference (thickness of the cuff). |
Additional Tips for Rolling Pants:
- Even Rolls: Ensure the roll is consistent around the ankle for a neat look.
- Tension: Don’t roll too tightly as this can restrict blood flow.
- Fabric Type: Heavier fabrics may require larger or fewer rolls. Lighter fabrics can often be rolled higher with more rolls.
- Style Choice: The height and thickness of the roll can alter the aesthetic, from casual to more refined.
- Multiple Rolls: Depending on the length of your pants you can do one large roll or several smaller rolls.
Rolling your pants at the ankle is a simple way to adjust the length of your pants and can alter their style.
