| Know before using | Repair Cafés are volunteer events rather than guaranteed commercial services, and each location sets its schedule, item scope, expertise, accessibility, parts policy, and capacity; confirm that clothing or textile help is available before traveling and expect to participate in the repair. | This is a 2013 Indonesian-language vocational school textbook, not a current national competency standard, universal block or sizing system, professional qualification, ready-to-sew pattern, or proof of individual fit. Some equipment, terminology, pedagogy, body classification, formulas, measurement practices, and construction assumptions may be dated or unsuitable for another person, material, product, or production setting. Confirm current equipment instructions, target-body evidence, ease, material behavior, representative samples, accessibility, and fit evaluation before applying its methods. |

| What the source establishes | The foundation's current public search reports thousands of registered Repair Cafés across dozens of countries, and its organizer manual includes clothing stations with sewing machines, hand tools, zips, buttons, patches, elastic, darning supplies, and wool-repair equipment. | Indonesia's Ministry of Education repository publishes Dasar Pola II as a 294-page vocational school book and learning module prepared by the government for the initial Curriculum 2013 implementation. The record names the Directorate for Vocational Secondary School Development and provides a direct PDF under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 license. The textbook covers clothing foundations, materials and tools, body measurement, human dimensions, basic patterns, paper prototypes, cutting, and pattern refinement. It distinguishes commercial, drafted, draped, graded, test, production, and block patterns, and includes bodice and sleeve systems plus dart relocation, length and size changes, design-line development, and pattern testing. |
