Adjustments tailoring?

[SlipInTime]

Did anyone ever write a solid, clear guide to the processes of common adjustments, or is it a situation where if one can cut a garment one can re-cut a garment & therefore no separate book was ever considered necessary?

There's a book called "Alteration of Men's Clothing" by David Carlin. It's very good and goes through various way to alter patterns for fitting defects.

Oh wow, thank you - this is so so good. My collection of books is extensive (far larger than my talent or skill  ) but I'd never heard of it, it's great!

That one's also very good book; it has instructions on fitting body coats that are quite well explained in my opinion.
