Distinguish plain, twill and satin weaves and sketch each interlacing on graph paper

Identify the five basic pattern-drafting measurements and take them on a partner, recording them in a measurement chart

Draft a basic bodice block to the recorded measurements on drafting paper

Explain yarn count systems and calculate fabric weight per square metre from given data

Adapt the bodice block into a simple kurta or shirt pattern with seam allowances marked

Demonstrate trueing of seams, darts and grain lines on the drafted pattern

Cut and construct a calico toile of the adapted pattern, checking fit on a dress form or person
