'''Able Sisters''' is a clothing shop/tailor shop, one of the main stores in the {{SER}}. It is owned and run by [[Sable]] and [[Mabel]], the Able sisters. The store was owned and run by their parents, until a fatal accident led to the business being handed over to Sable, who also had to take care of her younger sister, Mabel.

In all of the games, except for {{NL}}, the store resembles a small cottage, with an attic space which may be the sisters' living area. It has an emerald green roof, with blue featured windows with white shutters. The store also has a large white door for the entrance, with the Able Sisters sign directly above it.

In ''New Leaf'', the store is much larger with an external stairway leading up to the top floor which eventually becomes [[Shampoodle]], where the Player can change their [[hair]]style. It retains the blue sign above the door, but no longer resembles a cottage.

==Locations==
[[File:AbleSistersStore.jpg|thumb|right|200px|The Able Sisters store as it was in ''Wild World'' and ''City Folk''.]]The locations are different in every ''Animal Crossing'' game.

In the original {{PG}}, it was always placed in one of the F [[acres]], except for acre F5 where the dock is located.

In {{WW}}, it was placed directly east of Nook's shop, and in {{CF}} it can be found anywhere in the [[Town]].

===In ''New Leaf''===
In {{NL}}, the store can be found in the [[Main Street]] . Upon starting the game it is next to [[Nookling Junction]] to the left of it, and the [[Museum]] to the right. However, once the player has upgraded Nookling Junction to [[T&T Mart]], the [[Gardening Store]] will be built between the Nookling store and the Able Sisters store.

Initially, the only items Mabel and Sable offer in their store are [[shirt]]s and designs, as well as skirts and pants which are new to the series. These take the place of accessories, which used to be on show in the top right of the store.

[[Labelle]] runs the accessories store which is accessed via the door on the right of the building. It can also be accessed through Mabel and Sable's section by going through from the right of their room.

Once the player has spent 8,000 [[Bells]] in the Able Sisters store, [[Kicks]] [[Kicks (Store)|store]] will open next door to the right of the building. It will offer shoes as well as other accessories, such as socks.

==Products==
[[File:Able Pictures.png|left]]

The main products bought from Able Sisters are:
*[[Clothes]]
*[[Umbrellas]]
*[[Accessories]]
**Glasses
**Hats
**Masks
**Helmets

Clothes and accessories can be tried on before they are bought, by clicking the item with which [[Mabel]] will reply with a list of options - trying on being one of them.

==Designs==
[[Design]]s are created by talking to Mabel. Designs are player-created patterns that allow the player to create customizable objects that best suit their needs. They can be used as clothing, headgear, umbrellas, paintings, wallpaper, flooring or used as tiles to place outside on the ground.

===PRO designs===

</gallery>A PRO design is a more advanced design the player can make in {{CF}} and ''[[New Leaf]]'', which costs 350 [[Bells]] and 500 Bells respectively. Unlike regular designs, which have the pattern on the reverse and obverse on clothing, the player can customize the front, back, and each sleeve individually. PRO designs take up one pattern slot, and, like normal patterns, can be displayed and used through the Able Sisters store.

===QR Codes===
Once you have talked with Sable enough times you will unlock a new sewing machine. From there you can scan and create QR Codes.

[[File:Censored-qr.jpeg|thumb|Example of an Exported Pattern QR code.]]Creating a QR code will generate an image that contains the pattern's name, a preview image, and the QR code. The image will then be exported to the SD card and will be accesible via the Camera App. Exported Pro Designs may require more data than a QR code can contain so multiple QR codes are generated that have to be scanned in sequence to reproduce the pattern. To share the QR codes you'll either have to Upload them to a website like the [http://i.nintendo.net Nintendo ImageShare Service] via the 3DS's Web Browser, or by inserting the SD card into a PC and sharing the QR code from there.

Scanning a QR code is straight forward but requires you overwrite a pattern you currently hold. Once you've chosen a pattern to overwrite, simply point the 3DS's camera at the QR code and aim the cross hairs to match up with the code. If scanning a multi-code Pro Design, Scan the first code and then you'll be instructed to scan the subsequent codes. Note that scanned Designs(Normal&Pro) not made by you, cannot be Edited or Shared In-Game(via Able's Pattern Displays). If having trouble scanning a QR code from another device's screen, try dimming the brightness to prevent the image from being washed out.
