The lace pattern repeat is 4 sts. You are casting on 10 sts for each sleeve. That means that you have to work 2 pattern repeats (4+4=8) and 2 more sts. Total is 10. The purpose of the graph is to show how to handle the increases at the raglan lines, how to incorporate these stitches into a lace pattern. Since the increases are the same for all raglan lines, this graph can be used for sleeves as well as for back and fronts. Sleeves are worked in rounds without seams, that is why the even rows are knit. See pattern notes at the beginning of the pattern. There are 2 repeats of the pattern in the rows 1, 3 and 5, please check the pattern. For the rows beyond row 7, please see the chart.
