Last week I made a post on the tips that can help newbies in fashion and some terms in fashion that can also be helpful,I mentioned them and I promise to explain all of them.

let's learn on knowing and decoding of pattern.

Let assume you get a perfect fabric and a sewing machine,and you picked out some patterns for something you want to create.
Unfortunately,when you took the patterns out of the package,you now realized it was covered in some strange symbol and with some kind of different lines;some which are solid and some with dots and ashes.fortunately,those symbols are standard across the seeing and patterns industry,that's why I planned to write on this.
Let's learn and study some of the most common symbols,and their meaning and the ways to use them when making a sewing

Lines

Lines is the most common symbols on a pattern, highlighting the edges of each piece you need to cut a fabric.there are different types of line in fashion design and dressmaking (study)(study.com)

Cutting line:they are solid lines and easy to identify,it also indicates where to cut the fabric in other to match the shape on a pattern.

Pattern adjustment line:this is another type of line which is called pattern adjustment.it allows you to make a garment longer or shorter based on your needs.it usually runs across a piece And usually appears as two parallel lines.the space between it's line depends on the degree of lengthening and shortening required.

Folded lines:a folded lines look like the cutting line with breaks along it.you align the fold line and with the folded edge of fabric,leaving no extra space.

Stitch lines:these lines are farless common in contemporary,stitch lines are lines made of dashes.There is a difference between a fold lines and a stitch line which you can tell by the length of line segment.
