Oh no. I suppose you could do it by hand but that would take a LOT of patience lol. Would it make more sense to buy one from a clothing shop? Or you could take the one you've got to a clothing alterations place.
It is intimidating, yes. Just make sure the part that you move up and down doesn't slide off the top once you cut the track down to size. And cover the ends of the track once you re-attach it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
Damn. I cropped another jacket with integrated pockets and it left only a bit of the pocket left. I guess you could always unpick the pocket, crop the jacket and then move the opening further up and reattach the pocket. A bit of extra work though.
This is the only tutorial that actually helped me thank you ❤️
That is great. Thanks for watching 😊
Thank you. I thought it’s a lot easier to just cut the zipper bottom part, but having the top part crop up instead is easier.
I kept searching for such a tutorial, until I found yours! Thank you!!!! ❤️
No worries. Thanks for watching! :)
This is a hidden gem on the internet tbh. Thank u for the tutorial Keira Knightly
My, what a compliment! Glad it was helpful
this is the best and simplest explanation on youtube for this topic , thank you
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this tutorial, it was very helpful!! Also very calming to watch in a way lol
You are welcome! Hope you don't fall asleep at the sewing machine lol.
thank you! I just did mine and it turned out super cute
You're welcome Cody.
I would literally pay you to turn mine into a crop top! I came across your video for a tutorial, but i don’t own a sewing machine 😩

You make it look so easy!
wow this was very well done. appreciate the tutorial! :)
Thank you Chelsea. Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this tutorial!! I used this to crop one of my cosplay jackets.
You're welcome. Glad it worked out 😁
I actually did not think this would be so easy
It looks a lot more daunting when you’re staring at the finished piece while it’s needing to be altered
Thank you so much, this was really helpful!
Thanks for watching!
Very clear thanks. It's intimidating taking off the whole zipper and re-attaching it :(

Best tutorial ever tk❤️
Incredible job
Thank you Emory!
amazing
all great tips... but my hoodie has integrated side pockets...
I'll probable sew the pockets shut

@@midnightmarket thanks I’ll try that!
Did you straight stitch the bottom? I'm trying crop mine but the initial stitch is intimidating
Do you mean where I joined the waistband to the newly cut bottom of the jacket? If so, then yes.
@@midnightmarket Thank you :)
how did you cut the zip
I used sewing cutters as they have a thinner blade to get in between the teeth of the zip. Sharp scissors will do the trick.
You don't show the sewing part, tho
I have made other projects on this channel where I have shown the sewing, I guess I just assumed it would be repetitive and boring to watch, sorry.
What was thw size before??
A size small but because I have a short torso, the waist band covered my hips.
Do you cut the zipper from the top or from the bottom
The top. Do not cut the side that has the plastic bit on the end that you slot into the zip channel to do the jacket up.
❤️ love this
Thanks Hope!
thank you
where did u get the jacket?
A shop called the warehouse in New Zealand. I have had it for years.
Thankyou hunny 🥰
No worries
Cool
