FIGS. 9 AND 10. THE SLEEVE.
Fig. 9.
Commence by drawing lines O-E and O-F. Use the arm-hole size to produce the sleeve, and go down from O to B one-fourth of this; A is in the middle between O and B. Draw lines across.
From O to F is one-half of arm-hole, and from there draw a line down to K.
From B to F draw a straight line and halve it, which will be point H; and from this last also draw a short line at right angles with the diagonal line from H to J.
Measure the length of line B-F and take one-third of it and place it from H to J.
Now, using J as pivot, sweep from line at top, point 4, around to the front and the back; from B curve line past 5 to this sweep. Where the sweep crosses line at G draw a line down to K.
Go down from B to C three-fourths of an inch, and from here measure the length of arm to E.
Mark a point midway between B and E, which gives D, and draw a line across.
In the middle, between the two parallel lines at back, mark a point f.
Now lay the square in such a position on the pattern that 5 inches will touch point E and the long arm will touch f, then draw along the bottom, from E to N, and to f.
Begin to curve from C, past L to f, and curve to N.
Go in from D 1½ inch and draw the front-seam of the sleeve.
From X, where the curve strikes line B, begin to draw the under-sleeve parallel with upper part 6 to 1.
Measure from B around the sleeve-head to C, and apply number of inches obtained to X, and measure past 1 towards 3, the measure of arm-hole, and 2 inches more. If the upper-sleeve measures 11 inches place 11 on to X and measure 16 inches, adding 2 inches more to line at 3 for a 16-sleeve. Wherever point 3 is located begin to draw back arm-seam to bottom by running straight down, curving out to 2, or as much inside of line 7 as f is outside of it.
