To begin the raglan sleeve we first complete the sleeve number 1. Now measure the space from A to B, take half of this makes W, now draw a line up from W to D and E, from W to D place the width of the shoulder of the jacket for this sizes, from D to E is 3/4 of an inch, from E to F is also 3/4 of an inch.

LESSON 62.

The beginning of this sleeve is the same as the first raglan sleeve with the exception that this has dart placed at the center line which is foom W to D. In order to begin make from D to F and from D to E 3/4 ths of an inch and curve lines lost to W. Now allow from E to H and from F to G 3/4ths of an inch and draw line from G to V and from H to C, curve as shown on the diagram.

This completes the Regular sleeve with a dart in the shoulders, otherwise, we have all seams allowed to these sleeves.

For a seam over the top sleeve, split Lesson 62 from D, W down to the bottom of the top sleeve half width of the cuff and allow for this seam.
