My trousers are completed however I see some issues that need to be addressed before I make a 2nd attempt.
Despite lowering the back rise by 3/4 inch the buckling at the knees was not corrected.
It appears that there is too much cloth at the front crotch.
Jeroen - I did take your advice and took in 1/2 inch at the sides.
Asher - I wonder if the buckling at the knees is caused by the fork depth.
I think if I were to lower the fork depth by 1 inch, this could eliminate the knee problem.
I'm not sure where to go with the excess cloth at the front crotch.
Any suggestions and advice would be very helpful. Thankfully I have another length of this cloth to make a 2nd pair trousers.

Thank you all for your comments.
It looks as though you have too much crotch width. Try reducing width of front fork first. See how that goes before touching the back. It's also possible that the crotch is cut too low. Inside leg should go right up into the crotch. Yours looks dropped? (difficult to tell). As for the back of the knee, it's not that bad. It could be that pulling up the crotch by reducing width will help. But possibly the break over your shoe is the culprit. It's quite low and might be preventing the material from draping properly? Tuck up the hems and pin them. Does this improve things?
