Every person loves to wrap themselves in warm and cozy things, be it pajamas or a robe. Coming out of the shower or coming from a cold street, you want to put on everything that is warm, soft and fluffy.
Children, just like adults, need warmth and comfort. For a little princess, a soft robe sewn with love by her mother’s hands will be a real happiness.
The advantage of sewing a children's terry robe with your own hands is that you decide for yourself how it will look, and the unusualness of the work is limited only by the imagination of the author.
Let's look at several styles of dressing gowns for children: from the simplest, which can be sewn in just an hour, to complex ones. Everything will depend on your taste and the wishes of the child.
Fabrics can also be very different. Both terry, “frote” fabric, and ordinary terry towels are suitable. Some models will require a certain type of material.
How much terry do you need to buy? It depends on the size of the robe and measurements. It is best to first make a paper pattern and calculate the amount of material required based on the obtained dimensions. Let’s say the width of the fabric is 150 centimeters, you will need about 200 for the length of the robe and sleeves, about 15 should be left for hems, indentations and seams, and about 20-30 for the strap, if it is present.
Taking measurements from a girl 9-14 years old
- Bust circumference is measured horizontally. It passes through the line of the chest and shoulder blades.
- Hip circumference is measured horizontally through the line of the buttocks and hips. Important take into account the protrusion of the tummy.
- The length of the robe is measured vertically from the intersection of the neck and shoulders.
- The length of the sleeve is measured horizontally. This is the distance between the spread hands.
Construction of patterns (terry robe with hood, zipper, trapezoid, etc.)
We consider 3 types of robes, as promised earlier.
Important! When creating patterns, do not forget about indents.
The first is the simplest - from a whole towel
A skilled seamstress can sew this model in half an hour. You don't even need a pattern for it.
Take a large terry towel, fold it in half, and make an oval cutout in the middle of the fold, the size of a child’s head. Then you just need to spend time connecting and opening the hood.
Its pattern can be seen in the image:
The second level is more difficult - a solid, straight silhouette
- To begin with, a triangle is drawn on paper with one of the sides equal to ½ of the distance equal to the span between the child’s hands. In the diagram this line is designated as B.
- Line D can be of any size. This is the width of the sleeve.
- Side A is the length of the robe itself. You can choose one that is comfortable specifically for your daughter.
- And finally, C is equal to the half-circumference of the chest + two centimeters.
- The arc should round the axillary part of the pattern.
- At the top left point you should make 2 roundings:
- The first is from 6 centimeters to the right from the corner to 3 centimeters down. (back of neck).
- The second is from 6 centimeters to the right from the corner and up to 7 centimeters down. (front of neck).
- Add front smell to the drawing. In the diagram, this line is indicated in red and can be of any size.
The third level is the most difficult - flared downwards
This option differs from the previous one in that a pattern is made for the entire robe at once. It is suitable only if the span between the baby’s hands fits into the width of the fabric. Otherwise, you will have to make a 3/4 sleeve or sew on additional pieces of fabric. The diagrams show the required patterns.
The height of the pattern will be equal to twice the height of the product, the width will be equal to the distance between the spread hands. Sleeve width is arbitrary.
Hood
Separately, I would like to take out the hood pattern.
Distances are calculated according to the following scheme:
Head height (K8-K11) = Height - Height of the neck point.
Half the length of the neckline (K-K13) = Length of the neckline on the back + Length of the front neckline.
Then arbitrary roundings are made, as shown in the figure.
Assembling finished parts of a dressing gown for a girl
For all products except the first, the sleeve facings are folded halfway and stitched along the bottom. When basting and stitching the seams of the sleeves and side parts, the stitching should not be interrupted.
First view
Necessarily you should pay attention to the edge of the hood - it must be processed. To do this, you can use bias tape or simply use a hem.
At the end, the hood is sewn with a bed seam to the neck of the main part of the robe.
Second type
The hood is sewn as described in the previous assembly. The sleeve, shoulder, back and side seams are sewn.
It's important to leave a small area to turn the waistband inside out after it's sewn on.. Then you should iron the part and stitch along the contour. After this, you need to sew 2 belt loops and stitch them on the side seams near the waist.
Third type
This type of robe will not have shoulder seams.. It means that Only the sides and hood should be sewn(how to process it is written in the assembly of the first type). It is recommended to do this using a bed seam.
I would like to note that It is not necessary to carry out everything exactly according to plan. Fantasy should not be limited to a couple of patterns from the article.
You can come up with many interesting details, such as bows, ears, pockets, etc. Good luck with your creativity and have a nice day!
Everyone needs a robe with a hood! We suggest you sew a robe with a wide hood, a belt and a patch pocket. Our master class will tell you how to create a simple pattern and show you how to sew a robe with a hood with your own hands.
Robe with a hood: choosing fabric
How to sew a robe with a hood with your own hands? This robe fits freely on the figure, so its cutting and sewing does not require darts or raised seams.Pay special attention to the choice of fabric! A soft, warm fabric is best: cotton terry, flannel, cotton velvet, or cozy fleece. You can also use this pattern to sew a light summer robe from thin knitwear or silk. To accurately calculate the amount of fabric, construct all the pattern pieces and lay them out, taking into account allowances, on a flat surface. Measure the required size, taking into account the width of the fabric.
Depending on the type of fabric, select the method for processing seam allowances. The easiest way is to use an overlocker. Also, if the fabric is thin enough, you can finish the seam allowances with a double French seam, and if the fabric is too thick, you can use silky bias tape.
Our robe is tied with a belt, its length on average is equal to double the waist circumference plus 20-30 cm. We made one patch pocket on the robe, and you can add another one symmetrically or sew a robe without pockets.
So, let's sew a robe with a hood with your own hands!
Take the following measurements
- Robe length
- The length of the sleeve
- Hip girth
- Bust
- Waist circumference
Front and back
You will need a T-shirt or other piece of clothing that fits loosely. Copy the neckline and armhole, as well as the shoulder line, onto a piece of paper, first for the back, then for the front.
Place the desired length of the robe down from the top of the shoulder. The width of the front and back below the lower point of the armhole should be 1-2 cm greater than 1/4 of the chest circumference. Compare the circumferences of the chest, waist and hips. If the waist and hip circumferences are larger than the chest circumference, expand the width of the back and front by the required number of centimeters.
Add 7-10 cm in the center of the front and draw a new vertical line.
Sleeve
Measure the length of the armhole on the robe pattern. Calculate the height of the edging OO1 by dividing the length of the armhole by 3 and minus 5 cm, as well as the length of the auxiliary lines OP and OP1: half the length of the armhole according to the pattern.
From point O, set the height of the edge down and place point O1. Through O1 draw a horizontal line PP1.
From point O to the left and right, set aside the length of the auxiliary line of the sleeve edge OP and OP1. Divide the OP in half and set aside 1.5 cm from the division point upward. Divide OP1 into 3 equal parts and set it up from the first division point 1 cm down from the third division point - 0.5 cm. Draw a smooth line for the sleeve hem.
From point O, move the length of the sleeve down.
Hood
To create a hood pattern, take the following measurements:
- Head circumference
- Head height from shoulder to crown
Place point A in the lower left corner and draw a horizontal line to the right and a vertical line up from it.
Set aside 4 cm from point A and place point A1. To the right of A1, set aside 1 cm and place point A2.
Using the robe pattern, measure the length of the back and front neckline and add the resulting values.
From point A2, set aside the resulting amount + 3 cm in a straight line to a horizontal line from point A and place point C1.
From point A2, set aside the length of the back neck +1.5 cm and place point D. From it, set off the length of the dart at a right angle - 10 cm.
From point D on both sides, set aside 1.5 cm and connect these points with the height of the dart.
Smoothly bend section A2C1 upward.
From point A1, set the height of the head up according to the measurement + 3-5 cm (the more, the longer the edge of the hood will be) and place point B.
From point B, set aside 1/3 of the head circumference to the right according to the measurement + 4-9 cm (the more, the wider the hood will be).
From point C downwards, set aside 1-2 cm and through this point form the upper edge of the hood, as shown in the diagram.
Also connect this point to point C1 with a smooth concave line.
Uncover
The allowance for the bottom of the robe and sleeves is 3-4 cm, for the remaining seams - 1 cm.
- Front part - 2 pieces, mirrored
- Back part - 1 piece with a fold in the center or 2 mirrored
- Hood - 2 pieces, mirrored
- Belt - a strip 6 cm wide and the required length
- Free-form pocket with 3 cm top allowance
- The facing of the robe is 3 cm wide and a length equal to double the length of the front plus double the length of the hood plus 5 cm. If it is not possible to cut out a single facing, sew several strips into one.
- Two belt loops 4x6 cm
Progress
Fold the waistband piece in half lengthwise, right sides facing in. Sew along all sides, leaving an opening of about 5cm along the long side of the waistband. Turn the entire belt through the hole.
Fold the top edge of the pocket 5 mm, then 2 cm to the wrong side and baste. Stitch.
Fold the edges of the pocket 5 mm inward and baste. Baste onto the front half at the desired height.
Sew the hood, placing the pieces right sides together. Process the allowances.
Sew the shoulder seams, placing the back and front pieces right sides together. Process the allowances.
Sew the hood to the neck line. Wrap the seam allowance with bias tape from a matching fabric or scrap of the main fabric and baste. Stitch.
Sew the sleeves into the armholes, matching the top of the sleeve cap and the shoulder seam. Process the allowances
Sew the side seam of the robe and the side seam of the sleeve, aligning the armhole points. Process the allowances.
Fold the bottom of the robe twice and stitch. Sew the facing along the entire edge of the front halves of the robe and hood. Fold the edge of the facing, covering the folded bottom of the robe, and baste.
Fold the edge along the entire length of the facing, fold it in half and baste the seam allowances onto the edge.
Fold the belt loop pieces inward toward the middle and in half again. Sew the belt loops to the side seams at waist level, folding the edges at the top and bottom.
Every person enjoys wrapping themselves in a warm and cozy robe. You can sew it yourself. This clothing has a large number of varieties, but the general principles of creating patterns and sewing are similar in different cases. By choosing the appropriate option, you can create comfortable and cozy home clothes for yourself or your loved ones.
Requirements for home clothes
Unlike the gowns worn by doctors and nurses, when choosing home clothes, they are usually guided by the following wishes:
- I would like convenience and practicality.
- The preferred materials for manufacturing are natural.
- Choose light home clothes according to your tastes.
- It is desirable that a variety of options be provided.
An important role is played by the fact that it should be suitable in a situation where you have to welcome unexpected guests. There are various styles that are suitable for any age: both a young girl and an old grandfather.

This type of home clothing has many varieties. Below are some of the most popular ones.
Wrap with lace
Such a robe is necessary to emphasize femininity and not leave a man indifferent. There are a large number of styles. Lace can go well with a variety of materials.
The long version is well suited for women of all ages. If the average length is used, then this style emphasizes the dignity of the figure. The short style is more suitable for romantic meetings.
Kimono "Yukata"
Here we are talking about a kimono made of cotton fabric. Such clothes are often used at home or while out of town. To make it, they usually use fabric with a discreet gray or blue pattern on a white background.
Kimono Yukata In these clothes, the cut for women or men is the same. Usually the style is the same for people of different sizes. It’s just that those who are more comfortable this way smell more strongly.
To make this type of clothing, take a piece of natural fabric 150 cm wide and 300 cm long. Before you start sewing, you need to wash the cotton fabric. This is important because it shrinks after washing. By doing this in advance, you can be sure that the dimensions will be kept exactly. A master class on sewing a kimono is outlined below.
The cutting is done in accordance with the given drawing.
Yukata kimono pattern The fabric should be spread on the floor and the necessary lines should be made with chalk or a piece of soap. The length of the belt should be three times the length of your waist.
Sewing occurs as follows:
- First, the sleeves are processed. These parts are folded in half. The sleeves are short. The fold of the fabric is located at the top. Since the opening is wide, the sleeve is sewn up from the bottom and outside. A 15 cm hole is left for the arms. The hemmed lower part of the sleeve is used as a small pocket for small items.
- The wrap is attached to the front, starting from the bottom edge. It should be taken into account that the top edge is beveled.
- The neckline is being stitched.
- Now all that remains is to fold the parts in the waist part in half and place the front part inward.
The finished kimono must be carefully folded and ironed. The pattern for creating a men's robe of this type is done in a completely similar way.
Kimono sleeve pattern Children's robe with hood
Before you start sewing a children's robe yourself, you need to choose the most suitable style. There is a wide range of options - some of them are simple, while others are very complex.
Children's robe with hood For work, you can purchase terry cloth or use an existing terry towel of a size sufficient for the child. To determine the amount of material needed. You must first prepare a pattern, and then make calculations based on it.
Children's robe with hood If these clothes are being made for a 9 year old girl, then to create the pattern you will need to take the following measurements:
- Chest circumference.
- The circumference of the hips should be measured in accordance with the line of the buttocks.
- The length should be measured from the point where the shoulder line crosses the neck.
- To get a measurement for arm length, you need to spread your arms horizontally to the sides and measure the distance between your hands yourself.
In the simplest version, you can use a terry towel of sufficient size for sewing. This robe is suitable not only for girls, but also for boys. A hole is made in the middle for the head and folded in half lengthwise. The child stands with his arms horizontal. The fabric is cut and hemmed to suit his figure. In this case, the hood is made separately and sewn to the hole made.
How to sew a robe without sleeves and without side seams
To sew such a model of clothing, you need an appropriate pattern. In this case, it is made from one piece of fabric. In this case, the seams in the upper part are made between the back and the shelf.
Robe without side seams When drawing up a pattern, the master must take into account that in this case a rectangle is taken as a basis.
The width is determined by the circumference of the hips, which should be increased by approximately 12 cm. The length is selected based on the taste of the tailor. The depth of the neck and the height of the barrel are determined in accordance with the measurements taken.
Pattern without side seams Sewing is done as follows:
- The sleeve opening is trimmed using a zigzag stitch.
- In order to connect the shelf and the back, you need to sew the top seam.
- The edges of the fabric at the neck and sleeves need to be processed.
- The neck must be decorated using finishing material.
- The bottom must be folded and stitched.

- The size of the robe.
- The presence of a hood.
- Will there be sleeves and what length should they be?
- It is necessary to determine whether the collar goes with the robe.
For summer, a fitted style without sleeves or with very short ones is suitable. In colder times of the year, it is better to wear clothes with full-length or three-quarter length sleeves. Typically, patch pockets are used for such a robe.
Robe with zipper Since we are talking about a fitted garment with a zipper, it is possible to base this pattern on a tank top. You need to choose one that does not restrict movement.
Diagram of a robe with a zipper To create a pattern, do the following:
- The shirt needs to be ironed and folded in half.
- The T-shirt should be placed on paper, and the edges should be pinned. Next, draw a pattern. In this case, you will need to make allowances so that the clothes fit loosely.
- To pattern the sleeves, you can simply extend the sleeves of the T-shirt to the desired length.
- You need to choose what the fit and collar will be.
- If you plan to have a hood, then its pattern can be made from an old item that has one.
- Pockets can be of any shape; appropriate patterns must be prepared for them.
After the pattern is prepared, sewing is done based on it. In a made-to-measure robe, a woman will look impressive, even if she is wearing curlers.
Bathrobe
A pattern for a women's robe with buttons, size 48, will require the use of a fabric width of 150 cm equal to the sum of the distance from the shoulders to the bottom and the length of the arms. For larger sizes, you will need to use double the length of the robe.
Bathrobe In order to fit a pattern for a women's robe with buttons, you need to clarify your measurements and make the necessary adjustments to the pattern.
The width of the smell should be from 12 to 15 cm.
It is necessary to use a fabric that absorbs water well (for example, waffle fabric).
Drawing for a bathrobe When cutting on terry fabric, it is not possible to use chalk for marking. In this case, it will be convenient to attach paper drawings to the fabric with pins.
Step-by-step sewing instructions look like this:
- First, when sewing, the back and shoulder seams are machined.
- Hem the edges of the pockets and attach them to the main part of the robe.
- It is necessary to stitch the hem, collar and hem on the other side.
- Sew the finishing stitch on the collar and hems.
- Sew the sleeves.
- Sew the bottom of the product and the edges of the sleeves using an overlocker.
- Make a belt. To do this, make a 0.5 cm stitch along the edge of the wrong side. In this case, you need to leave a small hole. Then it is turned right side out and the hole is sutured.
- Try on and determine the full length of the sleeves. After that you need to sew them on.
At the end, belt loops are made through which the belt will be threaded. After this, the production of the terry robe is completed. It's warm and cozy even if it's frosty outside.
Dress robe made of textile fabric
When using textile fabric there are some peculiarities. In this case, it is recommended to make holes for the belt. They must be processed and provided with an adhesive lining inside.
The sundress pattern is made in such a way that there are no side connecting seams. Clothes are made from one piece of fabric. You can comfortably walk around the house or lie in bed in it.
Dress robe made of knitted fabric
This pattern can be made in the following way:
- A piece of fabric is folded in half lengthwise. This way the middle of the back will be marked in accordance with the pattern of the terry robe.
- Fold again widthwise. This will create the middle of the shoulder.
- The resulting lines are marked with chalk.
- Now all that remains is to cut the neckline.
When sewing, all cuts will need to be folded and sewn. It is necessary to install ties at the waist level.
This pattern for a robe will be convenient for soft fabric of medium thickness.
Children bathrobe Fabric selection
You can use different types of fabric for a robe:
- Synthetics look beautiful, are durable and have a longer service life, while being electrified and poorly breathable.
- Sometimes Yorkie fabrics are used.
- Bamboo fiber works well, but is an expensive material.
- Cotton is also often used to make robes.
- Silk robes are beautiful and practical, but are not suitable for everyday wear.
Terry cloth robes are widely popular.
Calculation of the amount of fabric
The amount of fabric required to sew a robe depends on the style chosen. Once the pattern is prepared, you can determine which cut will be needed for sewing.
How to start sewing
Making a flannel robe using a size 46-48 pattern requires care and attention. It is available not only to experienced craftswomen, but also to those who are just learning.
Taking measurements
Typically, to sew these clothes, you need to take the following measurements:
- neck, chest, waist circumference;
- shoulder girth, sleeves;
- dress length;
- back width.
These measurements are important to ensure that clothing fits your body well. Based on these measurements, patterns are drawn up. For the base, you can take a standard one and make adjustments according to the measurements taken. In this case, the drawings will change slightly.
Taking measurements Cut on fabric
A pattern for sewing a dressing gown can be made using pre-made drawings on paper or directly on fabric.
The basis for the manufacture of this clothing is a standard pattern.
Standard pattern Sewing the product
- The shoulder seams are done first. After they have been stitched, it is necessary to iron the allowances and do this towards the back.
- The sleeve must be sewn taking into account the marks made in advance. The allowances should be ironed towards the sleeves.
- The side seams and those on the sleeves are sewn together with one seam. They need to be ironed towards the shelves.
- Now you need to sew the bindings. At the same time, they are folded in half lengthwise. The fold lines need to be ironed. The trim and the edge of the robe must be folded right sides together and sewn using a hidden seam.
After this, the main part of the robe can be considered ready.
Wraparound robe Design of sleeves and details
The edging for the outer edge of the sleeves can be made using binding
For decoration, you can sew a pocket onto the robe.
To make a belt, you need to stitch it, cutting off the corners, and turn it inside out. The open seam must be done all the way to the edge. In this case, on both sides it is necessary to bend the edge by one centimeter.
How to sew without creating a pattern
To make a dressing gown with your own hands, a simple pattern looks like this.
To do this, just take a rectangular piece of suitable fabric. In this case, the corners must be trimmed to make them rounded.
Make a robe without cutting The dimensions should be as follows. The length of this solid cut should exceed the woman’s height. The width is required so that the fabric can be wrapped around the body with the smell.
For quick sewing, you need to make cuts for the arms. To determine their location, you need:
- Draw a vertical line in the center of a piece of fabric with chalk or a bar of soap.
- The height is measured from the bottom of the robe to the bottom of the armpits.
- A horizontal line is made at this point; it should correspond to the width of the shoulders.
- From the last segment, two vertical segments are laid upward. At this point there will be slits in the fabric for the arms.
After the holes for the arms are made, the part of the fabric that is above the shoulders is folded and falls freely onto the back. Now, in order to wear a robe, you will also need to make a belt. You can look at it before sewing the robe. What this style looks like when you make it for a doll.
Robe with lace A robe is a cozy home garment that emphasizes the style of the housewife. To make it, you can use various styles. Usually, making such clothes is not difficult even for a beginning craftswoman.

Let's make all the seam and hem allowances.
Procedure for sewing models
Robe1:
Along the front sections of the shelves and the hood, on the reverse side we iron strips of thin non-woven fabric 7 cm wide. We sew down the shoulder sections. We make the middle seam of the hood and sew the hood into the neck.
We sew the sleeves into the open armholes, press the seam allowances towards the front and back and sew them from the front side close to the seam. Using a single stitch, we sew down the side sections and sew the seams of the sleeves. We reinforce the patch pockets on the wrong side with non-woven fabric and sew them cleanly with interlining.
We sew the pockets along the top at a distance of 0.5 cm and sew them to the shelves at the same distance from the edges. Sew down the lining details. We fold the lining with the robe right sides together and sew down the side sections, the front sections of the hood, the bottom sections along the hem line in sections 7 cm long and the bottom sections of the sleeves.
We turn the product inside out, we sweep out the edges and use a machine to hem the bottom of the product and the lining 2 cm wide. We sew the robe with the lining along the seam line where the hood is sewn in. We sew off the shelves and the hood along the front edges, laying 7 lines with a large stitch at intervals of 0.5 cm.
We sew the bottom of the sleeves in the same way. We strengthen the belt-tie on the wrong side with non-woven fabric on the width of the fabric, grind it cleanly and sew it off.
Home jacket 2:
We turn the top allowance of each pocket to the wrong side and, tucking the cut, sew it down, we sweep the allowances on the remaining sides to the wrong side, we sew the pockets to the shelves at the edge and at a distance of 0.75 cm. We make shoulder seams. We sew the sleeves into the armholes, iron the seam allowances towards the shelves and back and sew them off from the front side, laying two lines at a time. Using a single stitch, we sew down the side sections and sew the seams of the sleeves. Using a machine, we hem the bottom and sleeves with a width of 2 cm. We reinforce the neck and side strips on the wrong side with non-woven fabric and grind them down. Sweep the allowances along the internal cut onto the wrong side, place the strip with the front side appropriately on the wrong side of the product and grind it. We cut the seam allowances in the curved areas in several places and turn the strip to the front side. We sew the bar along the inner edge, laying two lines, and sew along the outer edge twice with the same interval. According to the markings, we make loops in the longitudinal direction. We fold the tie belt in half lengthwise, grind it cleanly and sew it off.
A charming terry robe with a hood is perfect home wear not only for adults, but also for children. Girls will be happy to wear such a robe at home, because it is soft, warm and very comfortable. And sewn by mother’s caring hands, such a robe will become your child’s favorite one. By the way, using our pattern you can sew a robe for a boy.
For sewing such a model, terry, also known as “frote fabric”, is a natural material made from cotton, bamboo or linen. Its characteristic feature is a fluffy fleecy surface formed by many loops.
It is very easy to create a robe pattern, however, first you need to take measurements. We recommend sewing a robe using a closed seam. To create the pattern, we use the length of the robe along the back - about 65 cm.
Creating a Drawing Grid
Since the silhouette of the robe is very loose, we build the width of the mesh according to the measurement of the hip circumference. Draw a rectangle ABCD with width AB = 41.5 cm (half hip circumference according to measurement + 8 cm for loose fit): 67/2 + 8 = 41.5 cm and length AD = 65 cm (length of robe according to measurement).
Armhole depth of the robe. AG = 16.5 cm (Armhole depth according to measurement + 2 cm increase in freedom of fit). How to measure the depth of the armhole is described in detail in the article. From point G, draw a horizontal line for the armhole GG1.
Waist line of the robe. AT = 29.5 cm (Back length to waist according to measurement + 0.5 cm for all sizes): 29 + 0.5 = 29.5 cm. Draw a horizontal waist line TT1.
Side line. Divide the segment GG1 in half and from the division point G2, draw down the vertical line of the side G2N.
Rice. 1. Pattern for a children's robe with a hood
Constructing a pattern for the back of a children's robe
Back neck. From point A, set aside 6 cm to the right (1/6 of the neck circumference + 1 cm for all sizes): 30/6+1=6 cm. From point 6 up, set aside 1.5 cm and draw a concave line for the back neckline along the pattern.
Armhole width. Armhole width according to measurement = 9 cm. From point G2 to the left and right, set aside 4.5 cm (½ Armhole width according to measurement). Points G3 and G4 were obtained. From point G3, lift up the perpendicular - point P.
Back shoulder line. From point P downwards, set aside 1.5 cm and draw a shoulder line 12 cm long (shoulder length according to measurement + 3 cm for all sizes): 9+3=12 cm.
Back armhole line. Divide PG3 in half. Draw the back armhole line as shown in Fig. 1.
Constructing a pattern for the front of a children's robe
From point T1 up, set aside 31.5 cm (accident by measurement + 0.5 cm for all sizes): 31 + 0.5 = 31.5 cm – point W. Draw a horizontal line from point W to the left. From point G4, lift up a vertical line until it intersects with a horizontal line drawn from point W. At the intersection of the lines, point P1 is obtained.
Front neck line. From point W, set aside 6 cm to the left (1/6 Neck circumference as measured + 1 cm for all sizes): 30/6 + 1 = 6 cm, and down – 6.5 cm (1/6 Neck circumference as measured + 1, 5 cm for all sizes): 30/6 + 1.5 = 6.5 cm. Using the pattern, draw the neckline of the front of the robe. The contrasting piece for facing the front (shown in pink on the pattern) is cut 8 cm wide on the bias, folded in half and stitched to the robe.
Front shoulder line. From point P1, set down 3.5 cm and draw a front shoulder line 12 cm long.
Front armhole line. Draw the front armhole line along the pattern as shown in the drawing.
Additionally, create a pocket pattern. The width, length and location of the pocket on the product can be adjusted depending on the size of the product.
Construction of a robe sleeve pattern
Measure the length of the armhole of the back and front according to the robe pattern. Use the obtained value to calculate the Height of the collar: OO1 = 1/6 of the half-circumference of the chest according to the measurement + 2 cm): 30.5/6 + 2 = 7 cm and the Length of the auxiliary line of the collar OP = OP1 = 1/2 Armhole length according to the pattern + 1 cm.
From point O downwards, set aside the calculated Height of the rim: ОО1 = 7 cm. From point O to the left and right, set aside the calculated values of OP and OP1. Divide segment OP in half and set aside 1.5 cm upward from the division point. Divide segment OP1 into 3 equal parts and set aside 1 cm upward from the first division point and 0.5 cm down from the third division point. Draw the edge of the sleeve along the pattern.
From point O down, set aside the length of the sleeve according to the measurement minus 8 cm.
