How to measure the volume of the hand. Sewing lessons. We take measurements. Volume over the knee

In determining brush sizes first of all, you should outline its contours. And at first it is recommended to draw the outlines of the left hand, since it is less exposed to the influences of the external environment. The measurement takes place as follows.

1. Absolute measurement... The length of the hand is measured by the distance between the wrist joint (the line connecting the tops of both styloid processes) and the tip of the middle finger. The fingers are measured on the back of the hand with their extended position. The length of the fingers corresponds to the distance from the coccyx of the finger to the main joint. Possible shortening is well revealed when comparing the palms of the hands to each other.

Measurement brush width it is made with its unbent position. It is equal to the distance between the heads of the II-V metacarpal bones. The difference of 1 cm between the right and left hand is considered physiological.

Wrist width: distance between the distal points of the styloid process of the radius and ulna.

Wrist circumference: Measurement is taken over the most convex points of both styloid processes.

Brush circumference: Measurement is taken according to the metacarpal heads.

2. Length-width indicators but Schlaginhaufen: width x 100 / brush length.

Brush volume... The volume of the brush is determined using the water displacement method. The brush, up to the line connecting both styloid processes, is lowered into a graduated cylinder filled with water. The volume of the right and left hand differs in the same person. As a rule, the volume of the right hand is greater than that of the left (in the case of a left-hander, it is vice versa). The volume of the hand also varies depending on the gender.

Data Burger indicate the relationship between the volume of the hand (right hand), body height and floor. Burger's data below show the difference in the volume of the right and left hand depending on whether the subject is right-handed or left-handed.

Brush volume is of great help in objectively determining the degree of its swelling. The difference between the volumes of the hands makes it impossible to track changes in volume, however, repeated measurements of the same hand help in assessing the increase or decrease in edema.

Sometimes, when buying a gift for her man, a girl may be faced with the choice of the dimension of the bracelet. This choice sometimes confuses our beautiful girls.

And what is his wrist girth?

5 life hacks: how to find out the size of your man's wrist. Consider the examples below:

Watches Many men wear watches. The easiest and most fingerless option is to take a centimeter and measure the strap.
On a note: pay attention to how tightly the watch fits on the wrist (if the watch is free to hold on the wrist, then you can safely subtract 1-2 cm from the measured one).
The watch strap is measured by the inner diameter. Thread You can come up with some kind of infantile-romantic story, they say, waste that tata tata ..... I would like to tie you a thread and at the same time tell you a story ..... in general, turn on your fantasy. We knit the thread tightly, then you can break it so that it does not burn. And when he is not there, we take a thread and measure it with a centimeter. Leather Jacket Is there a leather jacket with tight rivets on the sleeves? Then this is your case. See how tight the sleeve fits on the wrist. We measure the inner side, approximately we subtract 1-2 centimeters. Bracelets for bathing We drag the man into the pool, before that we agree at the reception about a deliberately forged bracelet (the main thing is that it is not on an elastic band) we put on, the man hands over after. We return to measure. Sleeps like a tank in a dream. Our case is the simplest. We measure the size of the wrist with a thread in a dream.

This concludes our 5 life hacks. Below are approximate statistics. The probability of finding out the size of the wrist is 85%.

Before you start sewing any product, you need to take measurements. A professional dressmaker knows that taking measurements of a woman's figure correctly is half the battle. And even if you have never done this, strictly following the instructions below, you can do it quickly enough.

Important: before you start taking measurements, put on the underwear that you intend to wear under this product, since modern tights can give the effect of "tightening" and remove from 1 to 3 cm in volume, and bras, on the contrary, add volume.

Tie a thin cloth tape around the waist, this simple technique is used by all professional dressmakers. It makes it easier to take measurements at the waistline. We advise you to read about

Stand straight, without tension, do not slouch, do not bend your knee. After you take your measurements, you can compare them with the standard ones in order to better understand and analyze the features of your figure.

1. Chest circumference. This measurement is taken at the most prominent points of the chest. The centimeter should not be too tight or too loose. It should fit snugly, but without tension, to the body. The girth above the chest is measured over the breasts.

2. Waist circumference. Measured at the narrowest point, the tape should be tight around the waist.

3. Hips circumference. Measured at the most convex points of the buttocks. For women who have a "breeches effect", it is also recommended to duplicate the measurement (measure the volume just below the buttocks along the protruding parts of the "breeches".

If the first measurement is significantly smaller than the second, use the second, especially in products that involve tight silhouettes, such as a sheath skirt. In this case, the fitting of the product will have to be done directly when trying on the creased product.

4. The height of the chest. It is measured from the point of transition of the neck to the shoulder to the most prominent point of the chest.

5. Length of the front to the waist. The length of the front to the waist (DPT) is measured from the point of transition of the neck to the shoulder (base of the neck) through the most prominent point of the chest to the waist.

6-6a. Length of the product. For shoulder products, it is measured along the back from the seventh cervical vertebra to the desired length of the product (6), for waist products - along the back from the waist to the desired length of the product (6a).

7. Back length to waist. It is measured from the seventh cervical vertebra to the waist line (DST).

8. Back width. Measured horizontally along the straightened back through the center of the shoulder blades.

9. Shoulder width. It is measured horizontally along the most prominent points from one shoulder to the other.

10. Shoulder length. Measured from the base of the neck to the extreme point of the shoulder (the point of articulation of the shoulder with the arm).

11. Sleeve length. It is measured from the point of the end of the shoulder to the wrist along the arm slightly bent at the elbow. 3/4 sleeve length is measured in the same way, but to the elbow.

12. Shoulder circumference (upper arm circumference). Measured across the widest upper arm.

13. Neck circumference. This measurement is around the base of your neck.

14. The depth of the armhole. The depth of the armhole can be measured as follows: hold a 3-4 cm wide strip of paper under your armpit. Measure along the back from the 7th cervical vertebra to the upper edge of the strip of paper.

By the way, with the help of a strip of paper, you can take the measurement and the width of the armhole. Squeeze a strip of paper horizontally under your armpit, put vertical lines on the left and right of your hand - this will be the Width of the armhole.

15. Height of the hips. Measured from the side from the waist to the hips. In order to accurately take this measurement, tie a thin tape around your waist and hips. Measure from between the inlays along the side line.

16. Outside leg length. Measured from the waist to the outside of the leg to the floor.

17. Inside leg length (stride length). Measured along the inside of the leg from groin to floor.

18. Thigh girth. Measured horizontally 5 cm below the gluteal crease at the thigh.

19. Knee girth. Measured horizontally 2 cm below the kneecap.

20. Knee height. Measured from waistline to mid-knee.

21. Calf circumference. It is measured horizontally along the most voluminous part of the lower leg.

22. Ankle girth. Measured horizontally at the thinnest point of the leg.

23. Seat height. Measured while sitting on a flat surface, along the back, from the waistline to the surface.

Gloves are not always a conspicuous accessory. However, one should not pay little attention to their choice. Having chosen the wrong sizes, you will have to throw out or give the gloves to someone else. Therefore, when choosing a glove in a store or on the Internet, it is necessary to correctly determine the size of the hand.

How to determine the size of a hand for a glove?

When labeling gloves, manufacturers are guided by the girth of the buyer's palm. Let's figure out how to measure the girth of the palm:

1. Take a measuring tape and wrap your dominant hand as shown. (Leading hand: right-handed - right, left-handed - left). Do not wrap your thumb or the measurements will be incorrect!

2. Slightly squeeze your hand in the palm of your hand. This is done so that the purchased gloves bend and unbend freely.

3. Record the findings and compare them with the tables below.

• table

How do I know the size of the glove hand? This does not require special devices. If you don't have a centimeter ruler at home, you can use a regular one. Measure your hand on each side, add up the values ​​obtained and round the result.

Most often, buyers do not know by what standards manufacturers sew their goods. For the correct selection of gloves for the winter season, we recommend using size matching tables. With their help, you can easily determine the size of gloves for men, women and children.

Before proceeding with cutting the material and sewing the product, it is necessary to make an accurate measurement of the body circumferences required for this work.

By the way, taking measurements for a product is a very important process. After all, everyone knows that if mistakes are made at this stage, the product will be sewn according to inaccurate measurements. Therefore, it will never sit well on the figure.

When taking measurements, it is very important to pay attention to the structure of the figure of the person for whom the product will be sewn, since various deviations from the accepted norm are possible. Therefore, for figures with deviations from the generally accepted norm, more measurements are taken than for a typical figure. It is necessary to take into account the features of the physique even when choosing the future style of the product, as well as its optimal shape.

The quality of the final result directly depends on the more accurate the measurements you take ...

So, all measurements of the human figure can be divided into four groups by default:

• girths (neck, shoulder, wrist, chest, waist, hips);
• length (up to the waist, arms);
• width (back, chest, shoulder);
• projection measurements (body position, shoulder height).

Measurements of the first three groups are made with a centimeter tape, the fourth is measured using a ruler system.

The figure is measured by linen or light dress without large layers of fabric. It is imperative to ensure that when taking measurements, the person stands without tension, without changing his posture.

For the correct taking of measurements, as well as other measurements associated with them, it is necessary to determine the horizontal - the reference line. It is recommended to place it on the waist line, as it is easily fixed on the figure and connected to any point of it.

To do this, an elastic band is tied at the waist so that it is located strictly horizontally. The correct location of the elastic is checked by measuring the distance from its upper edge to the floor (from the back and front).

When thinking over a dress for a specific figure, the position of the front and back neck tops is determined by measuring without calculating the calculation formulas. In this case, the middle of the shoulder is taken as the baseline. All measurements are made with a tight fit of the centimeter tape without taking into account allowances, because they will be provided already when building a drawing of the future structure, in direct proportion to the fabric, silhouette, size and purpose of the product.

The measurements taken are recorded in the following capital letters:

• O- girth,
• WITH- half-girth,
• IN- height,
• D- length,
• NS- width,
• C- centers or protruding points,
• NS- the position of a point or line,
• R- height (length).

Indexes, that is, small letters with uppercase ones, designate measurement sites. The size of the girths, lengths, heights and width of the shoulder is recorded in full, and the half-girths and widths - half of this value ...

So, the size figure corresponds to the measurement figure on the figure.

1) Semi-girth of the neck (PO w)

A centimeter tape is applied over the seventh cervical vertebra, from the side and in front, it runs along the base of the neck and closes in front of the jugular cavity.

2) First half-girth of the chest (PO g1)

The tape is applied horizontally on the shoulder blades, it touches the upper edge of the rear corners of the armpits, goes along the armpits, in front it passes over the chest glands and closes on the right side of the chest.

3) Semi-girth of the chest second (PO r2)

This measurement determines the size of the product when building a drawing. After the previous measurement, the tape on the back is not moved, in front it passes through the protruding points of the mammary glands and closes on the right side of the chest.

3a) Third half-girth of the chest (PO g3)

In the retail network, this measure determines the size of the product. The tape is applied horizontally around the body through the protruding points of the mammary glands and closed on the right side of the chest.

4) Half girth (PO t)

The tape is applied horizontally around the body along the waist line. When sewing some products, it may be necessary to measure the full waist circumference (O t).

5) Semi-girth of the hips (PO b)

The tape is applied to the gluteal points, it runs horizontally around the body, in front along the protrusion of the abdomen and closes on the right side of the body. Sometimes you need a measure of full hip circumference (O b).

6) Shoulder length (D pl)

Measured in the middle of the shoulder slope from the point of the base of the neck to the shoulder point.

7) Sleeve length (D p)

The tape is applied from the end of the shoulder seam through the protruding point of the elbow in the direction of the little finger to the hand. The arm at the elbow is slightly bent. Simultaneously fix (write down) the length of the sleeve to the elbow.

8) Arm circumference (O p)

Measured with a freely lowered arm. The tape is applied strictly horizontally. Its upper edge touches the posterior corner of the armpit, the tape closes on the outer surface of the arm. For a narrow sleeve, additionally remove the girth of the arm at the level of the elbow and at the level of the wrist, or the girth of the hand (O to).

9) Half back width (PSh s)

The tape is applied horizontally on the bulges of the shoulder blades to the rear angles of the armpits.

10) Half shoulder width (PSh p)

Measured between the shoulder points from the back. The ribbon goes through the sprout. This measurement is a control one.

11) Back length to waist (D st)

The tape is applied at the back from the waist line to the point of the base of the neck at the shoulder, it runs parallel to the spine through the bulge of the shoulder blades.

12) The depth of the armhole (D pr)

It is measured from the point of the base of the neck at the shoulder seam to the top edge of a strip of thick paper tucked under the arm. The tape runs parallel to the spine along the convexity of the shoulder blades. The end of the paper strip is taken to the shoulder blades, placing it strictly horizontally.

13) Side length (D b)

Measured on the back from the top of the paper strip to the vertical waistline.

14) Back shoulder height (In ps)

Determine the position of the shoulder point in relation to the waist line. Measurements are made in two directions: along the shortest distance from the intersection of the waist line with the spine through the shoulder blade to the shoulder point (oblique shoulder height) and from the waist line to the shoulder point parallel to the spine (straight shoulder height). The measure is written as a fraction: in the numerator - the value of the oblique measurement, in the denominator - the direct one.

15) Half the width of the chest first (PSh g1)

The tape is applied over the base of the mammary glands between the verticals, mentally drawn from the front corners of the armpits upwards. This measurement is a control one.

16) Half the width of the chest is the second (ШП г2)

The tape goes along the protruding points of the bust to the verticals, mentally drawn from the front corners of the armpits down.

16a) Half bust width (PSh b)

The tape is applied between the front corners of the armpits through the protruding points of the bust. The last two measurements are recorded together: the first number is PSh r2, the second is PSh b.

17) Center bust (C b)

Measured between the centers of the mammary glands.

18) Chest height (In g)

The tape is applied from the point of the base of the neck at the shoulder to the protruding point of the breast.

19) Front length to waist (D pt)

This measurement is taken directly after measurement B. The tape is applied to the point of the base of the neck at the shoulder, passing through the protruding point of the breast, parallel to the middle of the front to the tape at the waist line.

20) Length of the middle of the front (D cn)

Measured from the jugular to the tape at the waist. With a large bust, a thin ruler is applied to its protruding points - the tape passes through it. For control, the depth of the neck is measured from the point of the base of the neck at the shoulder to the upper edge of the ruler, laid horizontally at the jugular cavity.

This measurement, together with the depth of the neck, should measure the length of the front to the waist, and write it down in two numbers: the first is the depth of the neck, the second is the D cn itself.

21) Front shoulder height (B pp)

Measurements are made in two positions: from the shoulder point to the center of the bust and from the same point (the tape is not moved from it after the first measurement) parallel to the middle of the front to the braid on the waist line. Both values ​​are recorded.

22) Product length (D and)

A tape is applied from the 7th cervical vertebra, it goes down through the waist line to the desired point.

23) Skirt length (D y)

Measured from the waistline to the side.

24) Length in the middle of the front from the waist line to the floor (D pp)

25) Length on the side from the waistline to the floor (D bp)

26) Length from waist to floor back (D cn)

It is measured along a line that continues the line of the spine.

The length of the skirt in the middle of the front (D p). Its value is the difference between the D pp measurement and the length from the bottom of the skirt to the floor.

Skirt length at the back (D c). The difference between the D cn measurement and the length from the bottom of the skirt to the floor.

27) Pants length, pants length to the knee (D br, D brk)

Measured from the waistline at the side to the desired point.

28) Thigh girth (O b)

The tape wraps around the thigh strictly horizontally, touching the upper edge of the gluteal fold, and closes on its outer side.

29) Seat height (V s)

The person whose figure is being measured should sit on a chair with a flat, hard seat. Measure from the side from the waistline to the seat of the chair.

30) Seat length (L s)

The tape runs from the waistline in front through the groin to the waistline in the back.

31) Stride length (L w)

Measured along the inner thigh from groin to floor with legs slightly apart.

32) Knee girth (O k)

It is measured on the leg bent at an angle of 90 ° at the level of the knee point.

33) Height of sub-gluteal fold (B p)

Measured from the middle of the gluteal fold to the floor vertically.

ATTENTION!!!

• Before making a drawing of the pattern, you need to check if the measurements were taken correctly.
• The half-girth of the chest should be equal to the sum of the measurements of half the width of the back, the width of the armhole and half the width of the front (PO g2 = PSh s + + W pr + PSh n)
• Half the width of the back is taken according to the taken measurement; the width of the armhole is calculated according to the measurement of the girth of the arm (W pr = = O p: 3 + 0.5 cm);
• Half the width of the front is equal to half the width of the second chest (PSh n = PSh r2) or half the width of the bust minus approximately 2 cm (PSh n = PSh b -2 cm);
• If there is an inaccuracy more than 1 cm, the measurements need to be checked again;
• The length of the back to the waist should be equal to the sum of the measurements of the depth of the armhole and the length of the side (D st = D pr + D b);
• When sewing hats, you need a head circumference measurement (O g).
