Proportional scale
I was reading the article on math today and they were talking about the usefulness of a proportional scale to increase or decrease pattern sizes. There is an app on iTunes called proportional scale for $1.99. It is easy to use. I had decided to order one and was looking at the different places I could order it when I saw the the information for the app at the bottom of the google search page. I am just putting the information out. I am not affiliated in any way.

We used to use a scale like that in graphics in the olden days. It was a circle that you could turn, lining up measurements to get the percentage needed to increase or decrease the size of the graphic. Those scales were a valuable commodity...
