Understanding Raglan Sleeves

Unlike traditional set-in sleeves, Raglan sleeves are sewn to the bodice or main part of the garment at a right angle, Raglan sleeves extend in one piece from the collar or neckline down to the underarm.

 

To draft Raglan sleeves or adjust them, you need to understand the basic structure of the Raglan sleeves.

In the video, I explain how the Raglan sleeve bicep will be affected by its angle. And I show you how to adjust the bicep on Raglan sleeves.
