Notes for the factory

  • Wash: rigid denim shrinks, so state whether the measurements are before or after the wash, and name the wash standard.
  • Yoke and panels: say how the front and back panels are pieced and which seams are topstitched.
  • Buttons: give the shank button size and finish and count them by place: front, cuffs and pocket flaps.
  • Topstitching: name the thread weight and colour and the stitches per inch; denim usually sews at 8 to 10.
