Notes for the factory

  • Collar: give the collar point length, the band height at centre back and the spread, and the interlining for each.
  • Cuffs and plackets: state the cuff height and the sleeve placket length; both decide how the sleeve sits.
  • Seams: name the side seam (flat-felled or overlocked) and the stitches per inch; shirts usually sew at 14 or more.
  • Buttons: count them, give the ligne size, and say where the top button and the spare go.
