How to sew women's pants, narrowed down
How to take measurements for a pattern of women's trousers with a perfect fit
To build a drawing of women's tight trousers, we need the following measurements:
- Fri (waist semicircle);
- Pb (semicircle of the hips) is measured by the protruding points of the buttocks;
- Dol (height from waist to knee);
- Particleboard (trouser length);
- Sun (seat height) is measured in a sitting position from the waist;
- Lunch (thigh circumference);
- Ok (knee circumference);
- He (calf circumference);
- Шн (bottom width).
On a note!
When the drawing is done, then when cutting it is recommended to add 1 cm to the waist, and 2 cm to the hips.
What is the peculiarity of the pattern of narrow women's trousers
Skinny ones differ from classic ones in that:
- width below is less;
- the width of the knee is greater than below;
- length mainly to the ankles or higher.
Consider these features when building a pattern.
Step-by-step construction of a pattern of narrowed women's trousers
We postpone all necessary measurements along the length of the trousers
On the basic pattern of classic trousers we prepared, we lay aside the length of the narrow ones from the waist down according to these measurements and add an additional 2 cm. We will need these additional centimeters for bending when sewing.
We build a pattern across the width of the trousers
Now let's draw our measurements in width on the pattern . We expect:
- ½ hip girth from our standards;
- ½ girth of the knee;
- ½ leg circumference.
We draw additional lines.
- From the height line of the seat down, we will postpone 8–9 cm and draw a horizontal line - the hip circumference.
Important!
The girth of the knee will coincide with the knee line on the pattern of classic trousers.
- From the knee line down, lay about 15 cm - this will be the line of the leg circumference.
- For the front of the drawing, subtract 1 cm from the hip circumference and from the point of intersection of the hip line with the iron line in the center, on both sides we postpone the segments obtained from the calculations.
- We do the same with measurements of knee circumference and leg circumference. The resulting segments are laid off along the line of the knee and along the line of the foot at the points of their intersection with the line of the iron.
- We shorten the seat line by 7 mm and raise it by 1 cm. And then we connect all our marks on the pattern, which we designated by the standards on the pattern for narrow trousers.
The front of the drawing is prepared.
We take the data of our measurements and calculate ½ of the volume of the thigh and add 1 cm, then along the line of grasping the thigh from the central point of its intersection with the line of the iron on both sides, we postpone these segments. We perform the same calculations with measurements of the knee circumference and leg circumference and are denoted in the drawing.
In the drawing of the back, always add 1 cm to the line of the thigh on both sides, it is better to remove the excess by fitting. This is done so that there is stock.
Tips for the beginning seamstress, how to build the right pattern of narrowed women's trousers
- In order for the pattern to work out correctly, it is necessary to make accurate measurements using a centimeter.
- For sewing tight pants, you will need measurements not only those taken for classic trousers, but also additional ones. After all, the figures for all are different and additional measurements will help to fit the pattern for this client according to his figure.
- When cutting, you should get the following details: two front and two rear halves; four parts of the front of the belt and two of the back; two parts for sewing a pocket and five strips for loops.
Be careful, follow the algorithm exactly, and you will get skinny pants that are ideal for personal parameters.
