+To cut a front with no pleats, cut out a rectangle from the center front
+that is as wide as the calculated ``#gathers_eccess`` in the pattern and
+as deep as the ``#front_slit_length``.
+
+Continue cutting the slit on each side for ``#button_placket_width * 3``
+plus an additional ``(#front_gathers_width - #button_placket_width) / 2``:
+this will be wider than the front slit that would have been cut for a
+front with pleats, and is required to have space for the gathers below.
