feat: Flat import of markdown repo

Browse source 
This is a flat (without history) import of (some of) the content
from our markdown module.

We've imported this without history because the repo contains our
blog posts and showcases posts content prior to porting them to strapi.

Since this contains many images, it would balloon the size of this repo
to import the full history.

Instead, please refer to the history of the (archived) markdown repo
at: https://github.com/freesewing/markdown

title: Parametric pattern design
order: 10
---
The FreeSewing core library is a toolbox for **parametric pattern design**;
Using parameters or variables to manipulate the outcome of a given design.
In sewing patterns, the parameters are what is provided by the user:
Their measurements and options that they have selected.
<Note>
##### No more grading, ever
When drafting or designing patterns or garments, it is common practice to start
with a fit model (or dress form).
The measurements of the fit model are used as input in the initial design.
Adapting the pattern for a different model is a tedious task,
which is why patterns are graded up and down to cover different sizes.
But in a parametric sewing pattern, adapting to different sizes or models *just works*.
</Note>
FreeSewing patterns are implemented **as code**, which has a lot of advantages.
It allows for patterns that adapt to your measurements or preferences,
fine-grained version control, seamless collaboration, and using existing
patterns as a starting point for you own, to name but a few.
That being said, you don't have to be a code monkey to use FreeSewing.
