The problem is the armhole seam. The seam is about 1.5 inches too far from the shoulder joint, the cap is longer to make up for this, I suspect. This has sleeves but the armhole for both the sleeveless (high cut armhole) and sleeved version is the same. The model is having the same problem as you if you look carefully. Find a shirt/blouse pattern in your pattern stash that fits well and use that and the sleeve cap and bicep area for your template. Tape scrap tissue to your pattern, and trace a correct armhole, use center front and shoulder seam as guides for new armhole seam (that will lower the armhole a little--good) and redraw the sleeve, using the sleeve as a template tapering to the original sleeve length and width if you wish. This cardigan should not be wasted. Just turn it into a sleeveless version again, using some of the fabric from the sleeves for binding strips.patsijeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362426384481772370noreply@blogger.com
