that's a great tutorial indeed! now, how to adjust the armhole to reflect this sleeve ease change? do you happen to have a tutorial on that as well? and also how to add ease on a two piece sleeve?
You’re so welcome! This tutorial can work with the existing armhole, it’s for quite subtle changes. Of course you can adapt the top of your armhole at the same time too. I’ve got a variety of tutorials on sleeves and fitting on my membership if you’re interested: www.patterncutting.school
Good video! For knit fabrics, like a jersey T-shirt, is there a guideline for how much ease there should be in the sleeves? I plan to insert the sleeves flat, before sewing the side seams. I’m trying to adapt a pattern for a woven top for use with a jersey fabric and I want to avoid any excess fabric at the top of the sleeve and the related unattractive puckering. Thank you.
Hello, I would normally have no ease in my sleevehead for jersey as the fabric serves the same purpose. If you’re converting a woven pattern I would check the new sleeve head and armhole with a quick toile to check it still fits.
Does the amount of ease depends on the size of the individual? Say for the individual of size M I would add 2cm of ease for cotton fabric. And what about size 3XL? How much ease should I add there?
Hello, yes, you can increase the ease slightly in line with the size of the sleeve. If you're grading, the ease will automatically increase in line with the pattern piece
Really clear tutorial on adding and decreasing sleeve ease. Thanks Charlotta
Thanks NATALIE!
Easier method than some of the others I found. Thank you :)
You're welcome!
