If the crotch is too low the the rise is too high. Lower the waistband
and compensate for this shortening by lengthening the legs

Does anyone know of a website that explains how to shorten the crotch on a
pattern for pants. I find when I make pants the crotch is way too low. I
tried raising it, but have had no success, and I tried raising the waistband
and lengthening the legs but this only works with really simple pants. The
best I can do is keep practicing, but advice would be wonderful!

Thanks!
