Arm Length

This is a length measurement taken from your shoulder/armhole point over a slightly bent elbow, down to the wrist. This measurement will dictate your sleeve length and it is important to take it over the slightly bent elbow as one’s normal body stance consists of a pose whereby the elbow is slightly bent. If you want your sleeve lengths to be correct for the majority of body stances, you will need to take the measurement this way.

• Place the measuring tape at your shoulder/armhole point.
• Measure down the length of your arm, over a slightly bent elbow to the wrist.
• Record the measurement.
