I have been having problems easing in sleeves. Ponte Roma has not been as forgiving as it was last time I used it! After much seam ripping I appealed in the Facebook group Sewing in the UK for some advice. Here is my post. Here are some of the answers. Though I had stretched the ponte roma whilst I had been juggling with it, my fourth attempt was better. Thanks everyone! Before advice both sleeves were crumpled. After advice I'll keep practising but not on this item. Time to move on. Edit: I just heard Gok Wan, the fashion guru , refer to rippling on a set in sleeve as "pinched detail" I could have said that of my first attempts! Maybe there's an excuse for every sewing problem?
