How to choose between Dawn & Dawn Curve

February 12, 2026

Written by Anita

If you find yourself in the crossover 14-20 sizes and are struggling to choose between the Dawn & Dawn Curve patterns, this post is perfect for you!

We found in the drafting of Dawn Curve, that there wasn’t a need for any drastic changes for those over-lap sizes (14-20), so if you fall comfortably in sizes 14-20, either the 0-20 or 14-30 patterns will serve you equally well.

The deciding factor of which range to choose is whether you will need to grade up past a size 20 or below a size 14 for any reason. If you’re looking for some more guidance on this check out the posts below!
