Pattern Grading

Take the size you approved and carry it through every size you plan to sell.

Front pattern piece graded and nested in sizes XS, S, M, L and XL

Sizes that look like the same garment

Grading is more than making a pattern bigger or smaller. Pocket position, collar width and hem shape all need to scale by the right amount, so every size looks like the style you approved.

We grade patterns we made and patterns from other makers, after checking the base size first.
