I know what WOF is-when the bow tuck pattern calls for WOF how does one determine the WOF? I am using yardage for this one. Would it be based on standard 44' width?? The directions are a tad confusing :? ......Thanks

yes...WOF is always the width of the fabric from selvage to selvage edges...usually 42 -44 inches

Yes usually 42"-44" but don't bet the farm on it.

width of fabric is simply- across the width of the fabric- salvage to salvage- and can vary from 40"- up to about 45" depending on the fabric line/manufacturer....lots of patterns are based on having 40" of fabric (figuring you remove the salvages)
