Why can consumption increase in striped fabric?
We can't always cut pieces in the tightest fit to match the front placket, pocket and yoke lines. If we determine from the beginning which regions you want to match in, the material calculation will be more honest.
Examine the fabric cutting processConsumption account entries
Fabric consumption does not depend only on the size of the shirt. Fabric width, number of pattern pieces, sleeve length, pocket and yoke structure and size distribution of the order together determine the layout efficiency.
Laying decision affects the cutting result
The face of the fabric, pile or pattern direction, ply tension and resting need are defined before laying. Uncontrolled stretched layers may cause size changes after cutting.
- Fabric width and usable edges
- Face, orientation and floor layout
- pattern placement appropriate to body proportion
- Defect marks and parts tracking

Cost of line and square matching
Front placket, pocket, side seam, yoke and sleeve combinations may not all require the same level of matching. When critical points are selected in advance, additional consumption and labor are calculated realistically.
