- Lessons on how to design double-tapered, single-tapered, and reverse-tapered garments with sleeves or sleeve caps that fit
- How to best use a stitch pattern to achieve the finished look
- A clearer understanding of commercial pattern instructions and how to modify them for your perfect garment
- Ways to improve your attention to detail with a meaningful test swatch
- Stronger knowledge of proper body or garment measurements
