relates to clothing sizes
This comes in the heading of a table, as part of the specifications for sewing women's trousers:
Målskema, målstrækninger
Along the top line are all the basic sizes - 34, 36, 38, 40 etc.
Down the side is a column-heading: Målstrækninger
Then in the column below, going down:
Livviddde
Sædevidde
Knævidde
...
And all the other measurements, which are then given for each of the sizes.
Each measurement is given as an 'absolute' for each size - there are no ranges.
It's Friday and my brain's numb after finding the rest of the terminology... So you'll really make my weekend if you know the answer!

Helen Johnson
: I'd have thought so (as far as I know, size refers to the final 'size' made up).
