*FACT—WHY IS SHORTER LONGER? On a drop shoulder sweater the sleeves can be shorter for a larger size sweater than for a smaller size sweater because:
• the actual body measurements for shoulders and arm lengths do not vary
as much between sizes as chest measurements do
• the body of the larger size is wider
• because the sweater is wider for the larger size it drops over the shoulder
more than for the smaller size and further onto the arm
Therefore less sleeve length is needed to cover the arm.
