Rh HOW TO CUT OUT KIMOO SLEEVE TO MAKE IT ONE PIECE.

LESSON 21.

To cut out this butterfly sleeve, we first cut out the back, from A to D and from D to 4. At D and 4 we have this garment somewhat shortened at the waist as shown on the' diagram between 8 and 4, that is about 1/2 of an inch shorter. Now cut out further as from 4 to 12, 3, 2, J, L to A, this is the back. Now cut out the front. Begin at O, Z, R, XX, from G to XX is 1 inch, X to 9 up to 11, from 11 to 15, from 15 to 14, from 14 to U up to O, this is the front cut out.

Now begin to place the two patterns together is order to make the one piece butterfly sleeve. Make all around first the back part from A, B, C, D, E, F, G, now make a parallel mark as shown on the diagram, from G to H, J out to F and place the front part to H, J which is the width of the shoulders. Further out as from J to K the front part must not meet a 3/4th of an inch parallel space as they cannot meet. Now mark further from K to L, M, N, O, P up to H. Now correct the neck, from A, X is 1/2 of an inch lower to be cut out in order to gett his cut begin to curve from P to E and finish at X. The back of this draft is cut with fullness on the bottom between B and C, m order to take off fullness at the bottom where broken line is, from C to S connect X, as from S to B is an increase of fulness, this completes this lesson.
