General Pattern Notes
These sleeves are worked in the round from bicep to elbow, after which the lace is worked flat in rows.

Over 50 photos are provided throughout the pattern to show all disparate parts of the sleeves’ construction.

Aside from stitch counts and sleeve length, all instructions are exact. At no point does the pattern leave you to “figure things out” on your own.

Given the myriad combinations of arm size and sleeve length, yardage cannot reasonably be calculated, so you will have to trial and error this, yourself. Err on the side of more yarn than you think you might need, as the lace uses up quite a lot.
