hm, okay, now i've got pretty much the most fitted one-piece sleeve pattern possible. it's not comfortable to bend my arm all the way, but i can do it, and as i've said before, i don't actually expect a long fitted sleeve with a high cap to be super comfortable at all times. i don't think i should actually use it as is, though - it takes the concept of the front edge being shorter than the back and needing to be stretched to fit to an extreme, the difference is a whopping 3.5 cm, and the resulting shape would look a bit odd on modern clothes. but i could use it to derive two-piece sleeves (especially historic ones) and a less fitted form of one-piece sleeve. i would probably just have to rotate some of the currently huge elbow dart into the front edge and leave it unsewn. how much? i guess i'll have to refer to my many books to decide that
