eolai-ms. (or. 33-14) for sleeves or the like and more particularly to such patterns as are adapted for use in cutting sections for sleeves of different sizes.

The object of the invention is to provide an adjustable pattern whichpreferably includes at least two sections that are adjustable, one with relation to theother, to define the proportionate shape for a piece of material which is to be cut for the size of sleeve desired.

Further objects of the invention will be more clearly understood from the following description and the accompanying drawing. in which:

Fig. 1 is a plan view of a pattern embodying my invention and which is intended for themside section of a sleeve.

Fig. 2 is a similar view showing the said pattern adjusted for a different size and for determining the shape at the top or arm pit end of the sleeve.

Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the said pattern adjusted for the same size but fordetermining the shape at the bottom or cuff end of the sleeve.

Fig. 4 is a plan view illustrating a pattern for the outside section of the sleeve and also embodying my invention.

Fig. 5 is a similar view of the said pattern adjusted for a different size and to determine the shape of the top of the sleeve section.

Fig. 6 is a similar view showing the same pattern adjusted to determine the bottom of the sleeve section.

As illustrated in the drawing, the pattern for the inside section of the sleeve includes a section 5 constructed of a piece of sheet material, which may preferably be of sheet fiber or the like, and which conforms to the front sleeve section.

The said section 5 is provided with a three tion indicating line 1, near the cuff portion thereof and a similar direction indicating line 8 near the arm pit portion. The said section is also provided with a series of graduation lines 9, at the top and bottom thereof, which are identified by insignia denoting the numbers for the different sizes towhich the said pattern may be adjusted and which cooperate for determining the adjustment of the section 6 upon the section 5 for different sizes of sleeves which are to be out from said pattern.

The section 6 is also provided with direction indicating lines lil'and II which cooperate with This invention relates to adjustable patterns in the different sizes indicated by the; graduations 9. 4

The pattern for the outside se'ction 'of the sleeve, as illustrated in Figs. {to 6, also com- Lprises overlying sections ofsheet materialjthe section l3 being marked with indicia including the graduations M, the direction indicating lines l5 and I6, and the section I6 being provided with the direction indicating lines I! and I8 which cooperate with the lines [5 and I6.

If desired, locating notches [9 may be provided on the edges of the different sections for relatively locating the sections of the sleeve after they have been cut from a piece of material.

In the operation of my invention for cutting an inner section of a sleeve by means of the pattern illustrated in Figs. 1, 2, 3, the section 5 is first applied upon the piece of materialto be cut. The section 6 is then adjusted with the front edge 20 thereof in alignment with the graduations 9 corresponding to the size of the sleeve desired. The said section is then moved vertically on the section 5 to the position illustrated in Fig. 2, until the lines 8 and II are in alignment. The front, top, and a portion of the distance along the back or elbow edge of the section 6 is then traced on the material to be cut from said pattern.

After the material has been so traced, the section 6 is moved downwardly, to the position illustrated in Fig. 3 wherein the lines 1 and Ill are in alignment, and remaining distance along the edge of the back and the cuff of said section. is then traced on the material.

When the entire distance around the pattern has been traced, as above described, the pattern is removed from the material and the line denoting the arm pit curve of the sleeve may be corrected by rounding out the curve as indicated by the dotted lines 2|.

The outside pattern illustrated inFigs. 4 to 6 is used in the same manner as just described for the lines I and 8 to indicate the relative vertical the inside section. When the upper end of the said pattern is traced, and the pattern is removed from the material, the top of the sleeve section may be corrected as indicated by the dotted lines22.

It will be understood from the above description that, by my invention, I have provided a novel adjustable pattern for front and rear sections of sleeves which may be adjusted to provide patterns for sleeves of diiferent sizes and which, when so adjusted, will define the periphery of the pattern in the proper proportion for the selected size.

It is desired to have it understood that, while I have shown the indicia and lines above described, other indicia may be applied upon the said pattern and the same may be modified to a lesser or greater extent without departing from the scope of my invention as set forth in the appended claims.

I claim:

1. An adjustable pattern for a sleeve section comprising a sheet of material having a profile of substantially one-half of said sleeve section, a separate sheet of material superimposed on the first and having a profile of substantiallythe remainder of said sleeve section, indicia including graduations on one of said sheetsjfor the adjustment of the other sheet relative thereto to determine the adjustment of the pattern for different sizes of sleeves by the alignment of the edge. of said second sheet with said graduations, and direction lines on said sheets for indicating the relative longitudinal position thereof when adjusted for different sizes and to define the pattern for the arm pit and cuff of the sleeve section.

2. .An' adjustable pattern for a-sleeve section comprising a sheet of material having a profile of substantially one-half of a sleeve section, a separate sheet of material superimposed on the first and having a profile of substantially the remainder of said sleeve section, indicia including graduations on one of said sheets for the adjustment of the other relative thereto to determine the adjustment of the pattern for different sizes of sleeves by the alignment of the edge of said second sheet with said graduations, and direction lines on said sheets for indicating the relative longitudinal position thereof when adjusted for different sizes and to define the pattern for the shoulder and cuff of the sleeve section.

3. An adjustable pattern for a sleeve comprising sections of sheet material, one of said sections being adjustable upon the other for the adjustment of said pattern to different sizes, indicia on the first section indicating the position to which the said section isto be'adjustedfor different sizes, and direction lines on said sections for indicating the relative position of saidsections to determine the profile for the ends of said pattern when adjusted to different sizes.
