Step 1 Find a pair of pants (preferably 1-2 sizes larger than your usual size)
Step 2 Measure and cut the legs off to the desired length, leaving 1.5" extra for hemming
Step 3 Try them on inside out, pin, and take in the legs as needed at the side seams. If you went more than a couple of sizes up, you may have to adjust the crotch and the inseams too (I didn't have to do this for mine)
Step 4 If the waist is a little too big, adjust accordingly. For me, this just meant moving the button over a bit
Step 5 Fold up the edges 3/4" twice, then hem. I did mine by hand using a blind stitch, but you could do it with a machine as well. Press the hem with an iron for best results
