Pattern Grading (FSHN 2209)
Pattern grading is the practice of developing a pattern size range from a base pattern size. This course teaches students to grade patterns by hand, with a grading machine, and using computer aided drafting (CAD) software and equipment, by applying concepts in sizing and proportion. Students will learn about pattern grading as part of the production process and will learn how to make factory-ready markers.
