Solve a fit problem and lock the pattern
A fit sample is rejected: the buyer reports the garment riding up at the front and tight across the back shoulder in the base size. You have the pattern, the sample and one week.
Who this is for: Pattern makers, sample-room staff, technologists and fit-session attendees.
What you produce: A fit correction file: diagnosis, pattern amendments, revised measurement chart, grading check and approval record.

Task 1
Diagnose the two faults from the symptoms, distinguishing pattern cause from fabric or sewing cause.
What a good answer contains: A good answer reasons from balance, grain and ease to a specific pattern cause, and explicitly rules out fabric stretch, shrinkage and sewing error with a check for each.

Task 2
Describe the pattern amendments, piece by piece, and state what each one changes in the measurement chart.
What a good answer contains: A good answer keeps amendments minimal and connected to the diagnosis, and updates every affected measurement rather than only the complaint point.

Task 3
Check the correction across the size range and say which size is now at greatest risk.
What a good answer contains: A good answer re-checks grade rules after the amendment and names the size where the change interacts badly with the grade.

Task 4
Write the approval record: what was changed, what was re-sampled, who approved and which documents were re-issued.
What a good answer contains: A good answer proves the corrected pattern is the one in production, with version numbers on pattern, chart and tech pack.
