MAE TO MEASURE
Read more here!
A Mae to Measure pattern is an interactive, made-to-measure pattern that calculates the number of stitches, rows, and yardage for a pattern. The benefit of a Mae to Measure pattern is that it makes your pattern size inclusive to virtually any body size (theoretically, it should even work for an infant!) This is done by allowing the user to type in their body’s measurements onto your pattern. Then, in the background, the pattern will calculate all the math within the pattern to fit the person perfectly.

SIZES
Virtually any size! Since it calculates your measurements using your body’s measurements, this pattern will work for everyone.

EASE
+5”/12.7cm ease on the body and +3”/7.6cm ease on the sleeves. This is made to be oversized.

DIFFICULTY
Advanced beginner/intermediate
