When the waist, basque or jacket is drafted, measure the armhole all
around, being careful to obtain the actual circumference.
By the size obtained we draft the sleeve head.
We then require the length to the wrist, the elbow and wrist size.
As an example, we shall use the following measures:
Armhole, 16.
Length of sleeve under arm, 16½.
Width at elbow, 12.
Width at wrist, 10.
DIAGRAM 41.—Commence by drawing lines O C and O J at right angles.
O to A is ⅓ armhole, 5⅜ inches.
O to J is ½ armhole, 8 inches.
Draw a line down from J to F, and across from A to G.
From A to C is the length, 16½ inches.
B is in the middle between A and C.
