Cap sleeve fit measurement?
Ashford   Advanced Beginner TX USA Member since 5/14/10 Posts: 74	Login to reply to this post Like this post Subject: Cap sleeve width measurement? Date: 8/21/12 2:22 PM When fitting for a standard sleeve, we are told to measure level at the bicep circumference, add ease, and mark that line as the bottom width of the sleeve cap. Where do you measure for a cap sleeve? What defines the sleeve size/width? -- Edited on 8/21/12 2:28 PM -- ------ Know, first, who you are; and then adorn yourself accordingly. ~Epictetus

This will give you a sleeve head height. -- Edited on 8/21/12 5:48 PM -- ------ www.thesewingspace.com
