Summary

Pattern Magic 3 is the latest in the series of cult Japanese pattern making books, now translated into English for the first time. The new volume looks at pattern cutting of stretch and jersey fabric. Fabric that stretches lengthways or sideways can be magical in itself. This book takes the special qualities of jersey, knit and stretch fabrics and uses them to create stunning, sculptural designs. In two parts, the book shows how to work with stretch fabrics and how to cut patterns that exploit their properties with truly original results. The book is accompanied by a basic paper pattern block/sloper.
