title: Dimensions
---

When you opt for a *paperless* pattern, your pattern will come with dimensions:

<Legend part="dimension">

An example of a dimension on a pattern

</Legend>

<Tip>

###### Pay close attention to dimensions on non-paperless patterns

Some patterns use dimension to indicate the full size of a pattern piece.
This typically happens when a part is a mere rectangle.

So when a pattern includes a dimension, make sure to pay attention to it before you cut into your fabric.
