"They may also be quarter-turned, meaning the fabric "tube" that creates the body of the tee was turned one-quarter of the way around before the shirt was cut in the manufacturing process. This eliminates a crease down the front of the shirt, which can interfere with imprinting and cause the shirt to hang funny."

Q: What does quarter-turned mean?

A: It is the final process we do to the fabric before cutting the parts out of the tubes we knit. The purpose is to place the permanent, more visible crease below the armhole on the finished garments and not in the center of the front and back of the garments. A quarter-turned garment looks better hanging at retail, and it does not affect a decorator’s screen print or embroidery design.

quarter-turned = presavijeno za 1/4 (ili 90°) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turn_(geometry);

"Finishing the corners when you're making a narrow hem can be a challenge. Making a perfect 90˚ fold at each corner is one option" - ova opcija se odnosi na pojam "quarter-turned" ili "dodatak za šavove od 1/4 inča" (dok je na sajtu koji to objašnjava, http://www.sew4home.com/tips-resources/sewing-tips-tricks/qu... predstavljen taj isti pojam koji u njihovom slučaju pokazuje dupli "dodatak za šavove od 1/4 inča").

Takođe, ako se na srpskom jeziku potraži pojam "dodaci za šavove od 1/4 inča", može se vidjeti da je to pojam koji se upotrebljava u tekstilnoj industriji.
