Hemming mesh hockey socks?

Recommended Posts

Anyone ever do this? Looking to hem the tops of some pro stock 31s to become 28s. I use the garter style attachment. Just wondering as I've never done it.

You'd just have to make sure you sewed in a fashion that maintains some elasticity (I'm no seamstress but I remember way back in 6th grade Home Ec class they taught us how to do this, unfortunately I don't remember the trick lol).  I have a few pairs that are long and I just fold the top down before attaching my garter belt, it never bothered me much but if I wanted to I would prob just do maybe 4 spots to keep it folded over (just enough to keep it down), otherwise I'd bring them to a dry cleaner and ask them to cut and add a new finished edge.
