The mini-sleeve performs not only a utilitarian function, covering the shoulder, but also a decorative one, especially if the sleeve is quite tightly fitted or folds are laid around the eye, giving a beautiful volume.
At first glance, the processing of a mini-sleeve can lead to a dead end, as it is only threaded into the upper part of the armhole, while the lower part remains open. And then the logical question arises, how to process a cut of the open part of the armhole and allowances for the sleeve inlet?
The easiest way is to completely process the armhole with an oblique inlay.
