Deer&Doe Size Charts

Deer&Doe drafts patterns in three different size ranges depending on the design. Please note that older patterns may only be available in sizes 34-52.

Deer&Doe’s drafting is based an average height of 1m68 (5’-6") and an hourglass body shape, ie. fuller bust and hips in relation to the waist. However, our patterns will still fit well if you have a different body shape; simply select the different sizes corresponding to you bust, waist and hip measurements and grade between sizes to connect them.

CHOOSING YOUR SIZE

In order to determine which size to use with our patterns, you’ll need to take your measurements. Since every clothing brand bases its sizes on different criteria, the size you need to make might be different than the size you would normally wear.

Deer&Doe patterns (starting with pattern number D0042) are developed in two distinct size ranges: the first size range goes from size 34 to size 48 and is developed from a size 40 block. The second size range goes from size 46 to size 60 and is developed from a size 52 block. Older patterns that have not been drafted in two size ranges are available in sizes 34-52.

Check the charts below to find your size. If your measurements overlap between the two ranges, we recommend trying both versions of the pattern to determine which size range is a better fit for your body shape. For form-fitting patterns, if your measurements fall between sizes we recommend choosing the larger size.

Fabulous pattern

I’ve been sewing for a long time but this was my first time making pants. I’m so happy with how they turned out. This pattern is so great. Classy yet comfy and able to be really versatile. Thanks!

Beautiful

Great fabric, beautiful color.

Texture Viscose Linen Black

The fabric is excellent and so beautiful 😍. The texture is exactly 💯 perfect for the pants. Your fabrics are excellent not just this linen.

Beautiful!

This fabric is absolutely beautiful! It has spurred me into high gear to finish off the projects I have underway - I plan to use it to make the Closet crew Mica dress :)

One of the Best

If I had a wish it would be that I could live in the Core Fabric establishment. I am always pleased with my online purchases, and the customer service is so good. I find the related business Closet Core patterns to be so well drafted. I now use Closet Core patterns to teach sewing skills to my students. I encourage my students to shop Core Fabrics for fabric and notions as well.

Luscious ponte knit

Believe it or not, I had purchased this fabric to make a Buddhist nun a garment (a wrap around cloth for certain teachings). She said it was too dark of a burgundy. So I made myself a sexy pair of flared leggings with pockets and I love them. I sewed them entirely on my Bernini Combo overlock, serger.
