I really love these sleeves!I got the pattern yesterday expecting them to look like the famous Simplicity knit twist top that has been reviewed over a hundred time, but they don't!
The matching points are pretty well marked. A, B, C and D line up on the back of the pattern and the back of the sleeve in descending order; and A, E, H and D line up down the front of the sleeve. I think I can figure this out, but it is definitely going to take a sleeve muslin! My biggest concern is that their sleeves are often tight on me because I carry quite a bit in my upper arms.
A sleeve muslin would be the way to go for this. It also gives you the opportunity to see how/where to widen the sleeve for your arms. Looking forward to your progress with this.
ReplyDeleteI hope that you take some photos along the way, and post how this sleeve is constructed. Looks like fun!
ReplyDeleteThat is going to be great and I am looking forward to seeing this in progress as I still can't quite visualise how this sleeve will go together. I agree that a muslin would be the way forward for this sleeve but am sure you will get it sorted out so its comfortable.
