Module 1 — Core Apparel Products
Covers core apparel product categories such as basic wovens and knits.
What you will be able to do

The practical work
For each of the five products, list the three measurements that fail most often in inspection and the construction point that drives each one — for example collar run on the shirt, waistband on the bottom, shrinkage on the knit.
Prerequisite: No prior module required.
