Freesewing patterns

This bundles the sewing patterns available for (the JavaScript version of) freesewing.

Included patterns

Note: menswear/womenswear has nothing to do with gender

Freesewing is gender-neutral. When we use the terms menswear or womenswear we are not talking about clothes for men or women. It is merely a category of clothing much like accessories or shoes are categories.

The category gives you an idea what to expect, and is there to help you find things. It is not a limitation, or even a suggestion, of what you can or should wear or make.

Wear whatever you want, and be proud of the things you make.

Install

npm i --save @freesewing/patterns

Usage

This exposes 3 named exports:

patterns : An object holding pattern constructors
patternList : An array of pattern names
patternInfo : Extra pattern information that is typically used for frontend integration (tags, difficulty level, that sort of thing).

For more details, please refer to the main freesewing library.
