Here I am going to show you a fitted sleeve and we have the drawing of it, my drawing
has the dash lines representing where the actual physical arm is. And since we want
to show that we are putting fabric over it and it's not necessarily skin tight, even
though it is fitted. Fitted doesn't mean spandexy, skin tight, it just means that it follows
the natural lines and it goes from out at the shoulder to in at the wrist just like
the normal human being's body does. So we have the arm and then we're going to make
it fitted to it where if, think about it like this, if you bend your elbow and you're wearing
a long sleeved shirt, it's going to come in, a fitted long sleeved shirt is going to come
in contact, the shirt fabric is going to come in contact with your elbow. So when we draw
it on here, you don't necessarily have to create any extra space, that's why there's
no dash lines right there because you're contacting the fabric when you bend your elbows but down
here at your wrist, it's still fitted, however, it's not tight. So you come out a little bit
and then come out a little bit here because you have to allow for range of movement. Otherwise,
if it were completely fitted, unless it were like spandexy it wouldn't work, you'd rip.
So come out a little bit and then you have your fitted sleeve.
