Making Armitas

[JasonGwiazda]

G'day all,

I'm in the process of making some armitas and have a chink pattern that I'll work with but was wondering if the apron is attached straight across the 2 pieces (like a belt in you jeans) or does it follow the slight downward curve like the 2 yokes?

In regards to the lacing in the leg plates, how is it secured to start and finish with?

Any hints would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Jason

Yes you will make the top of your yokes straight.
