Sleeves

The fit of a sleeve is to a point fairly standard, the variations lie in the

way that the cloth moves into the cuff and how this leaves room for

movement. The fullness at the cuff can be tucked in a range of ways.

Pleats,
The most standard way to end a sleeve
into a cuff. Pleats throw fullness to the
outer side of the sleeve, allowing
movement locally at the elbow. The size
of the pleat is determined by the size of
the cuff. — Pleats, The most standard way to end a sleeve into a cuff. Pleats throw fullness to the outer side of the sleeve, allowing movement locally at the elbow. The size of the pleat is determined by the size of the cuff.

Gathered,
Rather than pleats that throw the
fullness to one side a gather is an even
distribution of the fullness around the
cuff. This is more technically difficult
but creates an even and cleaner
looking sleeve. — Gathered, Rather than pleats that throw the fullness to one side a gather is an even distribution of the fullness around the cuff. This is more technically difficult but creates an even and cleaner looking sleeve.
