I feel your pain because I was once like you and it was truly frustrating. Until I I realized what I was doing…I was hoping that I would gain the knowledge I desperately needed from a free source. After all they say you get what you “PAY” for! So I decided if “Pattern Drafting” was the way I wanted to go (to get custom sized clothing for my wife and myself instead of using traditional patterns 😢) I would need to obtain a great pattern drafting reference for men and women. After feedback from several people in FB sewing groups I belong to, I purchased Metric Pattern Cutting for Women’s Wear - 6th Edition and (used) Metric Pattern Cutting for Menswear - 5th Edition (paperback) both by Winifred Aldrich. Purchased from Amazon. I’m a person with ADHD so I have to be careful about the type of reference works I invest in. They need to throughly explain the point but in a visual, stimulating, easy to understand manner…one I won’t mind going back to if needed. These books do just that to my surprise…it’s why I say to you please don’t give up…pattern drafting is the future and it’s fun!
