Resizing Patterns

Patterns can be resized using the following formula or using the chart below to determine the enlargement percentage to use on a copier. Size of the new block (NB) divided by the size of the current block (CB) equals the answer(A) times 100.
NB/CB = A * 100
Example to make a 12" block a 18" block ....... 18/12 = 1.5 * 100 Or 150%
