Thanks @crosheille. The journey back to my prepregnancy jeans was really tough. Thanks to actifit, it pushed me to get moving. Lol

That's just me being lazy and thinking I did a doublework with the hemming because I still handstitched it with that base level of yarn. But now I think sewing the edge in the sewing machine gave it a sturdier fold so I guess it has its purpose still.
