title: On the fold
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
When you have a pattern piece that is symmetric, the instructions might tell you that it is to be cut _on the fold_.
|
|
|
|
This means that only half the pattern piece is printed, and you should cut it out by folding your fabric, and
|
|
aligning the line that is _on the fold_ with the fold line indicated on the pattern.
|
|
|
|
The fold line is indicated with a double arrow like in this example:
|
|
|
|
<Legend part="cutonfold">A cut-on-fold indicator</Legend>
|
|
|
|
<Tip>
|
|
|
|
For an overview of all indicators on your pattern, refer to the [pattern notation guide](/docs/various/notation/)
