Abstract: A pattern making and pattern drafting system is disclosed. The system has a pattern group, stored in memory, consisting of a plurality of patterns having prescribed base lines and base points. Commands are executed to perform prescribed processing on a reference pattern and are stored into memory, the thus stored commands then being reproduced sequentially on at least one object pattern other than the reference pattern. In reproducing a command, the target point to be processed and the amount of processing to be performed by the command are recognized by reference to existing line consisting of base lines and other lines drawn on the reference pattern and existing points consisting of base points, both end points of each existing line, and other points drawn on the reference pattern.
