Designer notes

Cathrin is a side-effect of a project that never went anywhere.

I was going to make an elaborate dress, and I needed a corset to wear under it. So I did some research online, and I found this tutorial by Cathrin Åhlén on drafting an underbust corset.

So, I essentially implemented those instructions in code, and the rest is history as the original project got abandoned.

This design is named cathrin after Cathrin Åhlén who taught me (and others) how to draft such a thing.
