Usage Guide
1.Prepare your measurement: cut a 10 cm sample in the desired direction, or place a ruler directly on your fabric and hold it with your fingers at 0 and 10 cm.
2.Measure the initial length: note the measurement without stretching (10 cm if you use the ruler method)
3.Stretch gently until you feel resistance, without forcing so as not to deform the fabric
4.Note the stretched length and enter values above
Always test in the direction the pattern calls for. For example, if the pattern calls for 25% width and 15% height, measure the stretch of your fabric in both directions.
