Carmen García de Mora | Aprende a calcular un canesú circular

In this workshop, you’ll discover the method for calculating custom-made circular yoke garments. You’ll learn how to tailor this type of construction to the desired neckline, the shoulder line and, finally, the bust and sleeve lines. This way, whatever your body shape, these garments will fit you like a glove.

With Carmen, you’ll also learn how to take your measurements, interpret them and relate them to one another, as well as how to apply the ease that suits you best. She’ll also teach you how to create sections where you can add motifs to your yoke. Get ready to calculate short rows to apply to necklines or bust darts where necessary.

This is a theoretical and practical workshop. After the initial theoretical section, you will be able to calculate your circular yoke based on the measurements of your pattern piece and your own body.

The workshop includes a handout.
