January 23, 2019 11 Comments on Folkwear Patterns For All
You have asked for them . . . and Folkwear has worked on getting more patterns graded to larger sizes into the mix. Many people are surprised by how many plus-sized patterns we have! We have graded some patterns up, produced patterns in larger sizes, and worked to make sure everyone who sews might be able to use some Folkwear patterns. Including patterns for women (and men) of all sizes is important to Folkwear.
We have grouped our patterns below into patterns made in just one size (one-size-fits-all), patterns that go up to Misses Extra Large (XL or size 22-24), 2XL (or size 26-28), and 3XL (size 30-32). Most of these are sized are according to our own grade rule, though some of the early patterns are sized according to height, or were labeled slightly differently.
Patterns with an (*) beside the name are also sized for men, which means they have been graded up a bit farther than the women's sizes, depending on the pattern.
