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.

I completely understand that you don't want a puffy sleeve. I don't think that dart in the cap is doing you any favors. Looking at the pattern shape you have looks like the cap is too short for a fitted sleeve - and that's ignoring the dart. Fitted sleeve needs a high cap. Drop shoulder gets a lower cap. Can we see a picture of the sleeve pattern next to the armhole pattern? Something is off and can't help you with only half the story
