Sleeves
A raglan sleeve extends in one piece all the way to the collar, with a diagonal seam running from the underarm to the neckline instead of a seam at the shoulder. It gives a softer shoulder line and a wide range of movement — the classic baseball-tee sleeve.
Because the seam runs diagonally to the neck rather than capping the shoulder, there's no defined shoulder point, so the sleeve drapes softly and lets the arm move freely. That's why it's favoured for sportswear and casual knits.
It's one of several ways to soften the shoulder, alongside drop-shoulder and dolman cuts.
