Beautiful, thank you. That makes sense to my brain. ❤

Now that your armscye is 2 cm smaller, how do you adjust the sleeve? Thanks

[@ShaniaShania]

can you show us how to do this on a pattern that doesnt have a dart?

[@jenniferp8030]

Thank you for this tutorial. What about a pattern that has no bust darts and is made for knit fabrics?

[@loveandlacediy]

Hi Jennifer, so sorry I realise this is an old comment! Knits are slightly different as they tend to stretch. Did you ever figure it out?

[@lynetterene]

will the side seams still match up with the back side seam with this adjustment

[@lynnwalker3467]

Excellent tutorial. I've got the problem of excess fabric on the back armhole, how would you go about correcting this please?

[@loveandlacediy]

Hi Lynn, so sorry, I realise this is an old comment! Did you manage to figure something out?

[@Gosee22]

how to fix it without any darts?

[@loveandlacediy]

Ooh, tricky…would you be open to adding a dart? What kind of top are you making and are you using woven fabric?
