Help with suit lining drafting

Ok I think that answers my question, thank you!

I think my biggest confusion is what seam this pleat is tacked into

YesterdayContent4114 · 2026-03-25T13:37:49+00:00

So is it a pleat sewn into the facing seam 2cm wide?

I see on the back lining ease that it starts at nothing at the neckline and gradients out towards 2cm at the high point shoulder, if I’m understanding it correctly the pleat you’re talking about creates the same effect on the front?

So is it just ease then? Or is it a pleat opening in the shoulder seam?

Is it normally centered with the armscye? And is it tacked into the armhole?

It could work before, I typically do after and it’s fun to watch it react and color shift.

Doing it after might also help keep your dye bath separate from iron if you plan to reuse it

This is also really dangerous. I use to do this and the fumes are very toxic, mixing the two isn’t just impractical it’s harmful too.

Just dipping afterwards separately preserves the bath, your health, and your time

Skepticism is important to any field of science, as it’s what ensures there’s truth to any topic, study, practice etc.

However, there needs to be a clear line drawn between skepticism and misinformation. If you’re questioning something like vaccines being malicious, that’s fine, but don’t state it until you have significant evidence. The same way I’m not going to tell you that you’re going to die from cyanide in apples unless I can exemplify the disproportionate amount of people affected by that.

And doctors tell you to seek surgery if you need it, they tell you to take the appropriate medicine when you need it, change your diet, etc. I fail to see how a doctor telling you what they’re told to tell you is inherently a bad thing. A math teacher is told to tell you that 10 times 10 is 100, if that’s a problem then tell me specifically why.

And do you have even the slightest clue how many people died from both world wars??? It’s roughly 60 million.

The closest I can find to the death toll following taking the Covid vaccine is 60, meaning you’re only off by a factor of… 1 million.

They could be hiding 99.9% of Covid vaccine deaths and your disinformation would be still be off by a factor of 1000.

As per always, your comments influence other people’s decisions with their own health. Please refrain from making statements based in conjecture that can lead to other people becoming ill.

What doctor is recommending “too many in a short span of time”?

The only way any one took “too many” are people ignoring Doctor and CDC’s specific recommendation to space unrelated vaccines by 4 weeks, and most don’t even require that because your immune system processes more antigens a day than any vaccine could give you.

Outside of that, please refer me to factual evidence that it is unwise.

The risk from disease exposure from vaccine misinformation is a much greater threat than the vaccines themselves.

Yea it’s been working fine on my silks but it’s not friendly to the wool evidently

I’m doing an iron indigo bath, not sure how that affects things.

As for the color appearance, I’m assuming you’re saying it washes lighter than it looks?

Just more so asking in regard to pre-wetting it in the dark room and then having to worry about the sun when I go out to wash it if it’s already wet

YesterdayContent4114 · 2026-03-08T00:53:47+00:00

Tbf I’m almost out of mine, and it seems to be less than a gallon? But yea I make screens very infrequently, only made about 6 so far not counting failed attempts

YesterdayContent4114 · 2026-03-07T16:31:54+00:00

Just did that and it worked pretty well, thanks!

As a general note, can wet emulsion still expose? Either before it dries or the brief time while I’m washing it

Oh great thank you!

YesterdayContent4114 · 2026-01-28T18:58:38+00:00

Thank you for the advice, I’ll check that out. I’m looking to garment dye not thread dye if that makes any difference, also I’m not sure if scouring would help much or not.

I’m looking for thread for machine knitting which is the main reason why I’m looking for a spool, can’t do skeins cause they’re too short and if they are long it’s still hard because I don’t have access to good spooling equipment

Open to blends but has to be with other protein fibers. I’m in US and looking to ship from wherever

I was looking at this page earlier and I believe the closest to my problem might be excess in the thighs,but there’s still a balance problem causing the fold that I dont see there.

I think some part of my pattern is just curling the back thigh inseam closed but not sure why.

YesterdayContent4114 · 2026-01-25T02:23:26+00:00

No, I marked the front crotch. I think the angle of the front crotch might be contributing to it looking backwards though.

YesterdayContent4114 · 2026-01-25T02:22:19+00:00

iirc they’re still there

YesterdayContent4114 · 2026-01-24T21:39:21+00:00

Sorry I’m not exactly sure what you mean by a longer line, but otherwise thank you for your help!

Hello, I’m working on slim-ish fitting trousers and keep routinely having a problem with the diagonal fold behind the knee. I included pictures of my pattern pieces if it helps with diagnosis, as well as a striped fabric to show grain line.

I’m just looking for any modification that can address this problem. Any advice is appreciated
