Here’s an idea that you can try: Do you have sleeve that you really like on an existing shirt or dress? We have a tutorial that shows you how to replicate and create a pattern based on the already existing sleeve. You can find the directions on a sleeve I did in this tutorial: https://www.professorpincushion.com/professorpincushion/how-to-create-patterns-from-existing-clothing-simple-tops/ It’s not drafting it from scratch but it might at least be good practice. Please note: that if the original sleeve is from knit, you cannot add for a garment meant for woven fabrics. There won’t be enough ease for you. Good luck!
