what I mean when I say: keep the fingers closer to the fretboard or to the strings if you want is:
look at your take and see what is going on: when you play the first pattern, per example, you play:
------------------1-2-3-4
---------1-2-3-4--------
1-2-3-4-----------------
(it's not necessary to write all strings)
well, when you play the notes starting from finger one, you are moving your fingers like a "spider" so, when you reach the 4 note in every string with your finger four, you can see how you lift up the finger one. this is natural, since your fingers are still a bit hard. but if you can see and feel this from the beginning, you'll get it faster.
