"The next variation of cuffs that I'm going to teach you how to draw is called a placket shirt cuff. This is going to be a shirt that has a placket. A placket when we do sewing, I'll show you how to sew it. A placket is this piece. The button up part of the sleeve. And when you're actually drawing, this is how you draw it when you're actually you're sewing it, your sleeve here is all going to be one piece. And then you insert the placket that you sew into it. And then what makes it a placket shirt with a cuff the placket part. There's buttons down here, think of it just a regular old shirt. Goes and go in a closet and take out regular button-down oxford shirt. This is what you're going to see except for the fact that this part the placket part might be a little bit different, but the placket shirt cuff is going to be a little bit narrower as opposed to a regular regular shirt sleeves."
