Burda Style For people who sew

How to measure your upper arm circumference: Let your arm hang at your side. Run the tape around the widest part of your bicep. Make a slight muscle, not a He-Man type muscle, just a little flexed. Again don’t pull the tape around too tight, or the sleeve will never be comfortable. A good way to regulate this is to make sure you can fit a finger between the tape and your arm.
