This is a pattern for sleeves to attach to a pre-made sweater (after removing its sleeves).

This written pattern and chart make long, tapered, set-in sleeves, in a lacy stitch pattern, worked in continuous (spiral) rounds.

Size shown: 16” armhole (bicep) circumference decreasing to 10” at the wrist X 19.5” long

This pattern is part of an accompanying article with tutorials and photos on how to:

  • choose a retail sweater with appropriate sleeves
  • remove retail sweater sleeves of different constructions
  • calculate number of stitches to pick up around a sweater armhole (armscye) according to gauge and different sweater sizes
