DEF

Appareil constitué d'une règle graduée et d'un élément mobile, pour mesurer la distance au sol d'un ourlet afin de l'arrondir.

CONT

Le trusquin ou arrondisseur de jupe reporte avec exactitude la mesure constante de l'ourlet. Les marqueurs à épingles sont les plus précis [...] Le modèle avec craie vous permet de marquer vous-même vos ourlets, mais la craie laisse des traces sur certains tissus. Il se vend des trusquins qui combinent les deux techniques et qui s'adaptent aux longueurs à la mode.
