Question about sleeve draft
Hello!
I’m currently trying the sleeve draft and I had to stop because I’m getting a huge sleeve with my personal pattern.
I think it’s related with alteration 15 on the traditional model fitting.
I don’t understand how we could do that alteration without having a huge impact on the width of the sleeve, if we move the point on the side panel 1 inch inwards we would be making the sleeve 1 inch smaller.
Back to my personal pattern, that point is about 2 inches outwards towards the back. Wouldn’t that be making my sleeve 2 inches bigger than the comparable sleeve in a pattern with that alteration done?
Thank you in advance.

Well my friend, this looks like a near perfect pattern.
The only thing I would potentially do is increase the crown height (upper part of the top sleeve) by 1/4".
Good work David. Your sleeve looks very natural and comfortable, and above all, technically flawless!
I look forward to see more photos and the end results.
