To measure the armscye length, you need to mark the seam lines on your bodice sewing pattern, then measure the full curve of both the front armhole and back armhole. If you need help with these measurements, see my post on measuring. From your body you’ll need measurements for your sleeve length, your bicep measurement. You’ll need some measurements from your bodice – specifically your armscye lengths and armscye depth, which in this post we will refer to as your cap height. So let’s get to drafting a sleeve! Note that like the bodice sloper we drafted, this isn’t meant to be a wearable sleeve but an exact flat pattern copy of your body that you can then use to see how much design ease a pattern has and where you might need alterations. Hey y’all – today we’re building on last week’s post about how to draft a bodice by showing how to make a sleeve pattern.
