'''Figure 1''' shows the basic reference lines and other major lines used in constructing the main portion of the sleeve.<br> <br>
The instructions in this section will describe the process to use formulas in the Valentina program in Draw mode to construct a scalable sleeve pattern.
<br> <br>
To begin creating a sleeve pattern using the McCunn method, open Valentina. '''Figure 2''' shows the window that will be displayed when Valentina is first opened before pattern creation has begun. <br> <br> <br>
<!--T:2-->
The basic window shown in '''Figure 2''' will remain visible during the rest of the pattern creation and until the Valentina program is terminated. Click “Measurements” and select “Load Individual” from the drop down menu. Load the measurement file you plan to use. (The measurement file would have been created previously using the TAPE program and include the following measurements as a minimum:

Click “New” and enter a name for the pattern piece. Select the unit measure that you wish to use. Click OK to create the pattern piece. '''Figure 3''' illustrates the window that will pop up after New is clicked and will allow these selections to be entered.

Each time Valentina creates a new pattern piece a base point is created. Because “McCunn-basic-sleeve” is the first pattern piece in the pattern file created in this example, the base point is labeled “A”.
