Thread Consumption Calculator

Calculate sewing thread consumption per garment.

Total Seam Length (cm)

Stitch Type

Waste (%)

Thread/garment0.0 m

With Waste0.0 m

Per Dozen0 m

Thread Consumption Formula

Thread = Seam Length × Stitch Multiplier × (1 + Waste%) | Multiplier: Lockstitch=2.5x, Chain=4x, Overlock=4-5.5x

Seam: 500cm, Lockstitch, 15% waste → 500×2.5×1.15/100 = 14.4 m/garment

What is stitch ratio?

Calculate fabric consumption per garment based on marker data.

Calculate garment manufacturing cost including CM, trims, and overhead.
