Resize the Panadiere Pattern
Making the Pattern Smaller
I have made payment for the bread basket pattern and look forward to making some of these for Christmas gifts.
You mention in the description that an 8.5 in. square is possible, too.
This is my preferred size, so I hope those directions are included.
Also, I tried to see details for the zippered oilcloth bag, though "details" didn't launch.
Can you insert these details in my order? I may be interested in this pattern, too, if it is not too difficult.
Thank you!
Nancy
Thank you for the order.
You should receive the panadiere pattern shortly as a PDF attachment.
My standard panadière is 10 ½ inches long by 6 ½ inches wide by 2 ½ inches high when tied into the basket shape.
I also make an 8 ½ inch square by 2 ½ inch high version since a friend told me this is the perfect size for matzo bread.
To make the 8 ½ inch square version, subtract 2 inches from the length of the fabric and the length of the plastic interlining for the bottom. Likewise, add 2 inches to the width.
The plastic interlining for the base will be 8 7/16-inches square.
The side interlining pieces will be 8 7/16 long by 2 ¼-inches high.
Once you've made the measurement changes, follow the regular instructions.
Sorry about the Details page for the zippered tote. It seems to be working today. Here is the link.
I hope you enjoy your pattern(s)!
