What is a "yoke"?
A yoke is a structural design element in clothing that is typically made up of two or more layers of fabric and is used to add shape and structure to a garment. In shirts, the yoke is often located at the shoulders, where it connects the front and back panels of the shirt and can be either a single layer of fabric or a multi-layered construction. In pants, the yoke is located at the waistband and can be used to create a more comfortable and form-fitting fit around the hips. The yoke can be made from a variety of materials, such as cotton, denim, or leather, and can be decorated with details such as stitching, embroidery, or applique. Overall, the yoke is an important design element that can greatly impact the fit, comfort, and style of a garment.
