About this site

What this is

Enter your measurements and Katagami draws a sewing pattern you can print at true size on Letter or A4. Commercial patterns come in fixed sizes, and those sizes do not fit everyone. A pattern drawn to your own measurements should let you make the thing you actually wanted.

There are 260 patterns and 521 how-to guides (261 in Japanese, 260 in English). No account, no download, free to use.

This site takes part in the Rakuten Affiliate and Amazon Associates programmes. The materials list in each how-to guide links to product pages, and a purchase earns the site a commission, which goes towards running costs.

The products listed are fabrics and tools chosen because they suit that particular pattern. Commission does not affect what is listed or the order it appears in.
