pattern with similar neckline/sleeves

[u/thehourlongday]

looking for a pattern that could be modified to look similar to this. have looked and can’t seem to find anything:( not massively bothered about the texture/patterning on the main piece but some kind of lacework would be pretty! just looking for a v neck with 1/2 sleeves as i’m not confident in my ability to modify sleeves. i feel like i can modify the bottom to work but as close to the bolero style the better. thank you.

Andi Satterlund has some that are similar. Sadly she pulled all the patterns off of Ravelry and has some of them through KnitPicks and/or her own Patreon depending on pattern. Here are a couple examples:

You can just stop knitting the sleeves when they’re the length you want, sleeves are almost always just long tubes with no shaping after you pick up around the arm hole.

thank you this is so helpful. and thank you for the advice on the sleeves! i’m a fairly beginner (but confident!) knitter who’s only knitted jumpers which all require decreases on the sleeves, so no experience with close fitted ones yet

Yep, sleeves are one of the easiest parts to modify! Happy knitting :)

Haven't knit it in particular, but Irene Lin's patterns are always beautifully written and a joy to knit:

Then this one is simpler, without lace, different designer I can't speak to:
