My winter version of this lovely top. The pattern is very well written and it is very easy in general.

I knitted the sleeves top-down to the last stockinette row, then the lace part bottom-up and grafted both parts head to head. No trace of the seam, I really like it.

For the cuff, I cast on 40 stitches and repeated rows 1-5 7 times (dpns 2.5), then started the lace pattern with row 14 (switched to needles 3.0). In the middle section of each pattern repeat, I made 3 stitches out of 1 purl stitch on each side of the central twisted knit stitch (purled in front, yo, purled in back): 6 stitches increased in each pattern repeat in row 14 (+30 stitches in this row in total, then followed the pattern).
