What is pattern digitisation?
Pattern digitisation is the process of converting physical paper patterns into digital pattern files. Once digitised, patterns can be stored, amended, graded, converted and shared more easily with technical teams, suppliers or factories.
Pattern digitising vs pattern making
Digitising is different from pattern making. Pattern making creates or develops the garment pattern itself, while digitising converts an existing physical pattern into a digital format. If a pattern needs technical correction before conversion, amendments may be required before or after digitisation.
when brands need pattern digitising?
Digital pattern files are useful when a brand needs cleaner version control, grading preparation, factory communication, backup storage or repeated amendments across multiple development stages.
