Size Chart & Grading

Grade rules, a spec table for every size and fit, a client size chart and a sample check

Size Chart & Grading: Grade every size and fit from one set of rules
Grade every size and fit from one set of rules
  • Size Chart & Grading: Grade every size and fit from one set of rules
  • Type one rule, get every size: Base value + step between sizes, for each point of measure
  • Bigger steps for 2XL and up: Core sizes and extended sizes grade differently
  • Short and Tall from one rule: One length change per measurement, added to every size
  • Catch mistakes before cutting: Sizes that go down, big jumps, flat steps, missing values
  • See exactly which size is off: The problem size is highlighted on Grade Rules
  • A size chart clients understand: Body and garment measurements in cm and inches, on one page
  • Check a sample against spec: Green, amber or red against your tolerance

Works in Google Sheets (free Google account) and Microsoft Excel 2016 or newer.

Grade a whole size run from one set of rules. Type the base-size measurement and the step between sizes for each point of measure, and this spreadsheet works out every size from XS to 6XL, in Short, Regular and Tall, rounded the way your pattern room works (0.5 cm or 1/8 inch). It checks the grading for you and prints a clean size chart for a client or your shop listing.

Made for small cut-and-sew and CMT factories, pattern makers and small clothing brands that make tees, hoodies, sweatshirts and joggers in batches. Built with a working cut-and-sew workshop.

What's inside

  • Start Here

    Six quick steps, your settings (cm or inches, rounding, tolerance, the size where bigger steps start, Short / Tall on or off) and your size list

  • Spec Table

    Pick a style and see every point of measure in every size, for Regular, Short and Tall, with its tolerance and steps; the base size is highlighted

  • Grade Rules

    One row per style and point of measure: base value, step for core sizes, step for 2XL and up, Short and Tall change, tolerance; the graded sizes appear as you type

  • Check

    Every rule is checked: a size that measures less than the one before, a step that jumps, flat steps after rounding, missing values, unknown codes

  • Client Chart

    A one-page size chart with body and garment measurements in centimeters and inches, ready to print or screenshot

  • Sample Check

    Type what you measured on a sample; the difference from spec turns green, amber or red against your tolerance

  • Styles, POM and Body Sizes

    Your styles with their size runs, your points of measure with codes and how to measure them, and body size ranges with heights for each fit

Why you'll like it

  • No more typing a hundred numbers per style: change one step and the whole run updates
  • Two steps per measurement, so extended sizes can grow faster than core sizes
  • Short and Tall fits come from the same rule, with a change for lengths only
  • Mistakes show up before cutting: a sleeve that gets shorter at 2XL, a 5 cm jump in hem width
  • The client chart converts to inches by itself
  • Sample grading for a pullover hoodie and a basic tee to start from

Good to know

  • The sample grading is a generic example to show how the file works, not an industry standard. Replace it with your own rules and measure a sample before production.
  • Type every measurement in one unit. Switching from cm to inches later doesn't convert numbers you already typed.
  • Up to 30 styles, 40 points of measure (20 per style on the Spec Table), 300 grade rules and 10 sizes.
  • Best used on a computer; you can view it in the Google Sheets app on your phone.
  • Using a Mac?
  • For use in one business. Please do not resell or share the files.
  • Listing images show real screenshots of this template with sample data.
