Be the star of the party with these awesome sleeves! Made with cotton and lots of holes for breathability. So put on your favorite techno bangers and let’s get knitting :D

Materials used:
Yarn: 150 gr (=375m, 3 skeins) of a sport weight cotton yarn, I used Cheval Blanc Sunny in black). This yarn is labeled as 25 stitches in 4in/10cm on 3-3.5mm needles.
Needles: 5mm circular needles, I used a 80cm connecting cable.
Stitch markers: 4
Scrap yarn for stitch holders: 3 pieces
Darning needle for weaving in the ends

Pattern notes:
This is a pattern I made simply because I really wanted to make these supercool sleeves and I could not find a pattern for what I had in mind anywhere. It has been a process of trial and error, but I love the way they turned out, so I decided to share the pattern. I have made a guide for multiple sizes, however I’m not a professional pattern maker so feel free to experiment to get the right fit for you.
The stitch I used for this project is based on the Easy Mesh Lace Knitting Stitch found here: https://www.studioknitsf.com/mesh-lace-knitting-stitch/#m..., however instead of switching the yo, k2tog to k2tog, yo on the third row, I kept it the same. I found this to look a bit nicer as the k2tog stitches form a nice diagonal line. This also makes the pattern slanted (if you were to knit a square, it always turns into a rhombus), however, because of the stretchiness of the fabric and the short length of the body this does not cause much of a problem.
When working the mesh stitch, it is important to make sure that when you’re about to work the k2tog, the first stitch on your left needle is on top of a yo column and the second stitch on your left needle is on top of a k2tog column. To make sure the mesh pattern flows seamlessly from the neck ribbing, start the ribbing with a purl stitch, so that on the first round of the mesh pattern, when you’re working a k2tog, the first stitch on your left needle is on top of a purl column and the second stitch on you left needle is on top of a knit column. To make the ribbing flow seamlessly from the mesh pattern at the bottom of the body and the sleeves, apply the same principle, purl on top of a yo column and knit on top of a k2tog column.
It is very possible that there are mistakes in the instructions of this pattern, if you find any, I’m very sorry and please let me know so I can fix it. Also, I’m happy to answer any questions if the instructions are unclear.
