1 Increasing and decreasing patterns in size is not an easy task even within a CAD programme.
2 3a–4a Waistband grade is 1⁄2 waist girth increment for each size.
3 Grading Increment Calculations.
4 1–2 Hip girth: 1⁄4 hip girth increment = 50 mm.
5 3–4 Waist girth: 1⁄4 waist girth increment = (65)60 mm.

Grading of trouser
Grade from the base pattern in size 50 to the marginal sizes 44 and 58 and redraw with the base pattern. The
sizes 46, 48 and 52, 54, 56 are equally divided (= interpolated). For the trousers grading, the construction lines of
the centre, as well as the knee, hip and thigh lines are required. (Fig 3)
