The Perfect Sleeve - Part 2

Part 1 is HERE 




How to draw the sleeve (the easiest possible way)- Part 2





We left here in the Part 1 

Sleeve's frame, crown's frame.















We will need 7 points for the crown.

We have already 3 (top of sleeve, underarms points)

We have 2 more points on the elbow line and the bend line (see part 1 for those lines)

We will find one point half way down for the crown and 1/3 down for the back.

the back is always higher than the front due to the arm movement towards the front.







For the front, draw the little line half way between the two points, perpendiculaire and mark next point 2 cm.
















For the back, do the same : draw a little line between the 2 last points and draw a perpendicular half way. Mark the point at 1 cm away (it was 2 cm in the front)


We have our 7 points and we can trace our crown.












Make sure the crown is well rounded at the top.

















Note that the front and back don't have the same width. It is because the front and the back armhole aren't equal.


















Narrow at the wrist the same amount both side (from the side seams)



AND IT IS ALL FINISHED
