            How long do you want? I thought at 37ish, I'd made them long enough…..

            With that higher rise, I'd say 35.5 when fully shrinked! 🙂

                          probably not enough to measure

                                  Mokky, whoops.  Maths never my best subject.

                                  IJ, what is the question?

                                    ahh, that was just a general notice… like "Really???"

                                    G, I trusted your maths, but then I'm totally mathematically incapable  😉

                                      Confusing? So the raw leg opening shrinks anything from 0.75inches to 1 inch? Shrinks down to about 8.2inches?

                                        The leg opening (and all other horizontal measurements) shrink by the same ratio as the waist does.

                                        So the waist shrinks 1 inch, thus the total shrinkage is 1/34 which is 2.94%

                                        So you will get 2.94% shrinkage on the 9.1 measurement of the leg opening.  Which is approx .26 of an inch.  So will end up at approx 8.8.

                                        BUT, there is always a plus or minus sewing tolerance, so the original 9.1 is an average anyway.
