Pattern Drafting for Beginners – Dart Manipulation – Slash & Spread and Pivot Method • Elewa

To add to my Pattern Drafting for Beginners series, I will focus on dart manipulation and how you can use the slash & spread or pivot method to transfer darts to the bust, neck, armhole or anywhere you want!

This is a two part tutorial with the first part being specifically for beginners. The second part will be slightly more advanced but straightforward enough to follow.

Dart manipulation is one of the most important techniques when it comes to pattern drafting. The shape and fit of garments depend on darts and while they are needed to help garments stay in shape, they can also be used as a design element and knowing how to move darts will be beneficial.

You can find all the materials you need to start drafting your own patterns at Minerva Crafts' website http://bit.ly/2xSmA5X. The majority of my supplies are from Minerva.
