Archive of Thread: Sleeves for Simply Rectangles Waterfall Vest Back

3 years ago
I love the Simply Rectangles Waterfall Vest, but I want to add sleeves to it. Angela M has a picture of her version where she did that, and I love it. Just add a drop shoulder sleeve - unshaped - from another sweater pattern? Or is there a trick to it?

You could pick up the armhole opening and  knit a "drop shoulder" style sleeve

The armhole would be the blue lines "G" on the drawing below

Use the Magic Formula tool to calculate the sleeve shaping

Let me know if you need help drafting the sleeve and I can put something together.

One thing to keep in mind ... the armholes are designed for a vest and they are quite deep so the top of the sleeve will be wide
