Fitting:

Combining the patterns

Here I’ll show you how to join the blouse to the no. 5 skirt. You have to move the darts in this version, so they align with the lines on the skirt.
When you choose the size for the skirt, go up a size. If you fit a size 42 with the blouse, use a size 44 for the skirt. If you fit a size 54, take the skirt from size 54 and add 1.7 cm to each side seam.

1. You have to work on both the front and the back piece

  • 1 cm below the waist, make a perpendicular line to CF and CB on both pieces.

  • Cut the red line

2. Move the darts on both front and back piece.

  • Move as shown on the drawing.


How to change the neckline

1. Draw the new neckline

⦁ Tape front and backpiece in the shouldersesam

⦁ From the frontside, draw a line from the neckline and over on the backside approx. 4 cm down on the armseye. The line has to go over at the point where the front and back piece meet. This line is reed

⦁ Draw a line on the backside that meets the reed line. This line is green.
