Sleeve me
I like the belled cuff, and the stockinette is okay, I think...I hope...I tried swatching some small eyelet patterns which I thought might complement the lace, for the upper part of the sleeve, but wasn't crazy about any of them. The lace cuff could be another inch or two longer, I think, and then this sleeve really needs something at the lace-stockinette juncture, maybe something a little ribby, with a few eyelets, or maybe even just a row or two of reverse stockinette....
The above photo would be benefit from better lighting, but it's only 20 degrees outside right now, so outdoor photography is, well, painful. At least it's almost April; If it were only January, I'd have to seriously consider cutting the mullions out of the window to get rid of those shadow bars falling across anything I try to photograph in natural light.
I mean, this is kind of ridiculous.

The Chinese Lace Pullover is a perfect spring-into-summer project, as shown in cotton (or try a cotton/wool or cotton/linen blend). Lace borders on cuffs and lower hem flow into wide, figure-flattering ribs on the sleeves and body. Directions given for working flat OR in the round. See more patterns
