Woven Shirt

For fabric consumption of woven shirt we need MEASUREMENT sheet. We have to consider the measurement of middle size garment or the garment containing maximum quantity. Suppose measurement sheet is as follows:

Measuring Point				Meas in inch
Body Length @ C.B. neck				31”
Chest circumf.				44 ½”
Across shoulder width seam to seam				19”
Bk Yoke height FM HPS				3 ½”
Sleeve length fm CBN thru sh to slv edge(3 pt)				34 ½”
Armhole ( Straight, point to point )				9 ½”
Sleeve bottom opening circ.@ cntr btn				9”
Cuff height				2 ½”
Neck circumf. closed(cntr bttn to BH end stitching)				16 ¼”
Collar height at CB (without neck band)				1 7/8”
Chest Pkt Width @ top				5”
Chest Pkt Length @ center				5 ¾”
FABRIC CONSUMPTION
PARTS	LENGTH (With sewing allowance)	WIDTH (With sewing allowance)	FABRIC	Formula
Back (*Except yoke)	29 ½”	24 ¼”	0.45163 yds	={(L x W)/(36 x 44)}
Front	33”	26 ¼”	0.54688 yds
Yoke	21	4 ½”	0.11932 yds
Collar	17 ¼”	5 ¾”	0.12524 yds
Slv(**Width=armhole straight X 2)	22 ½”	20”	0.56818 yds (2 Slv)
Pocket	5”	5 ¾”	0.03630 yds
Cuff	10”	3 ½”	0.04419 yds
Total (Pc)			1.89173 yds/pc
Total (Dzn)			22.70076 yds/dzn
