Even the theory of knitting sleeves can discourage any desire to learn to sew from a normal person! ..
Therefore, in order to make the task easier for novice home couturiers, I made a video lesson about sleeves that do not require stitching and special skills for stitching.
These are the so-called non-stop or "shirt" sleeves used in sportswear, knitwear, as well as when sewing men's shirts of various styles.
The video master class on sewing in a sleeve is compiled from previously published sewing lessons.
1. Sewing clothes with non-stop sleeves
There are two ways to sew in a sleeve without stitching.
1.1 Stitching in before finishing the side seam and sleeve seam
The first method already familiar to us is sewing in before processing the side seam and the seam of the sleeve.
I showed you this method on the examples of a bomber jacket and a hoodie from a footer, as well as on a men's shirt.

And also video master class on sewing a bomber jacket
And about how to sew a men's shirt
The secret of this method lies in the design of the sleeve pattern - its rim should be quite low, about 8 - 12 centimeters, depending on the design of the armhole.
The ratio of the length of the armhole and the length of the sleeve in this case does not matter much, but it is better if the difference is small.
It is noteworthy that in some patterns, the collar of the sleeve may even be shorter than the armhole. This is possible in loose-fit designs with a lowered shoulder ...
Without tucking in, a sleeve with an assembly along the collar, modeled on the basis of the so-called "shirt" sleeve with a small collar height, can also be sewn in. The simulation result is shown on the right (picture 1)
If you do not have enough experience, then sewing in a non-stop sleeve, pin off its eye with an armhole with pins to distribute the fit evenly. The highest point of the eye in this case does not have to be match the shoulder seam.
With sufficient experience, it is not necessary to cut off a sleeve with an armhole.
This is how they do it in factories - they grind it without any chipping.
After stitching, the product should look something like 2 drawing.
1.2 Stitching in after processing the sleeve and side seam
The second method - stitching after processing the sleeve and side seam is also used for mass tailoring.
This method is suitable for medium sleeves (picture 3) and those styles that are obtained in the process of modeling these sleeves (picture 4). The height of the okat at the base, as a rule, ranges from 13,5 to 17 centimeters.
Stitching is necessarily carried out according to notches made previously on the cuts of the eyelet and armhole.
I do not recommend sewing in a sleeve with a relatively high notch when sewing clothes individually.
If you are interested in how to sweep in a sleeve, then this is shown in great detail in a separate sewing tutorial video for beginnersx, there are also pictures and descriptions.
In conclusion, I propose watch a video lesson on tucking in and stitching in a sleeve with an overhead assembly
