and block patterns, circular patterns, simple pattern designing,
yokes, dart manipulation, sleeves, collars and necklines, skirts,
and the one-piece dress foundation.
This edition also features a Fashion Supplement which offers

and strap (or placket) openings, and halter necks.

I was looking for a good basic book to teach me the basics back in the day. Good theory, a clear explanation on how to start your block and then how to make adjustments to get every piece you can dream of!
