I'm going to go over the women's diagram first, but men you canfollow along. Now to choose the size you want, you need a couple ofyour own measurements in cm. See where in the box it says? hat
means 'width'. means 'length'. !"ay, not so hard so far. he veryfirst line as"s for your height. No crying please. he Lis for someone#'$ %&$# cm. hat's o"ay, we can (ust add length to the bottom.)eep breaths, everything will be o"ay, my *mazonian sisters %said thealmost #'+ zippurah.If you fall between #'& to #'$ everything is good so far.
he second line as"s for your nape to wrist length. easure from yourfirst palpable vertebrae to your wrist bone %or rather have a friend do
it for you.
he next lines that start with are about the sleeve, so ignore it fornow.
Now comes %bac" width. his is half the actual width of thebac", because the seam runs down the bac". )ouble this number and
add it to the next number, %front width, also doubled todetermine the size of hips the yu"ata is for. -ere, I will do it for
you S/ &0& cm %12.3 in, M/ &04 cm %40.2 in, L/&03 cm %54+ in.So if you have more than &03 cm hips you are going to need to addwidth. 6ollowing the pattern set by the instructs add 0.# cm to thebac" panels for every & cm added to the front %remember, each stepup this way is a 1 cm total increase.
!"ay, you should be able to determine which size you want to ma"enow, since most of the rest of measurements don't vary.
en, don't thin" I forgot about you7 he measurements for you thatare important are much the same. he pattern says a Sis forsomeone &$$ cm tall %#'#, Mfor &34 cm %#'8.#, and Lis for &80 cm%#'&0. . he front of the men's pattern doesn't vary, but the bac"does. easure your widest point, either your waist or hips. Sfits &&0cm %41 in, Mfits &&+ cm %44 in, Lfits &&4 cm %54# in. 9ou mightalso want to chec" your arm length if you are increasing the total

yourself in *merica cotton comes in 4# inch %&&4 cm wide bolts standard, and up to $0 inches %+ cm in specialty fabrics. his
means instead of needing &&3$ cm of fabric, you can lay out a Mon around 440 cm.he boo" has a picture of the alternate layout %please remember a dotted line is a fold not a cut

8.Sleeve baste onI'm glad you guys li"ed it. I was "ind of tired as I was doing all the math, so I forgot to mention a couple of things. ost ;apanese

I'm going to post the rest of the general pattern pages without explanation, since translation ta"es a long time for me %I don't read
;apanese, I have to recognize symbol by symbol.
