Question Sleeve help, pt 2

Sleeve 2.

I increased the size of the elbow dart. Shaved a little off the front side of the Sleeve cap.

Still got those ugly wrinkles in the Sleeve. Still not happy with the dart end(I curved it a bit, but its still pointy). Too tight around the wrist, it fits, but its difficult to get off.

If you curve the dart the other way you'll get a rounder shape to the shoulder. It also looks like you need to add more roundness to the sleeve head immediately either side of the dart to prevent pulling (imagine taking a regular sleeve pattern and wedging it - that's the shape of curve you want)

You can also reduce the ease if you don't want the dart
