I have one sewing pattern for salwar kameez that is Simplicity 4249 but it has the skinny pants. Someone has given you instructions that sound quite good already. If you really need a diagram try to find this book: Patternmaking for Fashion Design by Helen Joseph Armstrong. ISBN 0-06-501789-7 It is in the section for pants and called geometric-draped pant.

You have hit the nail on the head - bang on! The two squares will morph into the two legs of the salwaar. Once folded into triangles, the lower (smaller) end will be the ankle end. And never mind about sounding like not knowing anything - the best way to find out is to ask - those who do not ask questions do not learn anything at all! :-) Best Wishes. Jasnav Hi Jaleh!
