I’d be done with my sleeves this weekend like I wanted except I got into a really good knitting rhythm and made the sleeves about 2 inches too long. The stitch marker shows where I should’ve switched to ribbing for the cuff, and where I had to rip back to.

Thankfully I was able to put in an afterthought lifeline (my first through any lace, which the sleeves have running down the side) and unravel the extra without incident. I’ve now begun the cuffs and I’m hoping to finish both sleeves by this Friday.
