I want to remove 1/2" from the sleeve cap of my pattern. I've never
done this so am not sure of the best place to pinch it out. As I see
it, I have two options:
1. Pinch out 1/4" from either side of the center point (if I do it
this way how far from center point should I pinch?).
2. Pinch out 1/2" from the center point.
What would be the best way to proceed?
TIA
Cheryl

I like to take two pinches, about 2" either side of the center point.
