PATTERN MAKING • DRESSMAKING • CUTTING TABLE
Keep larger pattern pieces in place
This 1kg large rectangular pattern weight helps hold paper patterns steady while you draw, trace or cut. Its 23 × 5cm footprint provides a longer contact area for larger pattern pieces, while the narrow shape lets you position it alongside the area you are working on.
The raised handle gives you a convenient grip for lifting and repositioning the weight as your layout changes.
Practical support for pattern work
- Long rectangular shape: useful for holding down larger sections of pattern paper.
- Easy to reposition: lift using the raised handle when moving to another part of the pattern.
- For tracing and cutting: help keep your layout steady while leaving the working line accessible.
- Build a flexible layout: combine several weights, or use alongside smaller weights where corners and narrower pieces need support.

Using your pattern weight
Lay your pattern flat, check its alignment and position the weight clear of your tracing or cutting line. Add weights wherever the paper can move. Lift rather than drag the weight when adjusting its position.
