I finally finished knitting the sweater! I have met another one of my goals for 2012.
After getting more yarn, I finished knitting the sleeves but made some modifications on the size of the upper arms. My arms are disproportionally big so I needed a lot of extra room here. I ended up doing a rapid decrease near the wrist. However, the sleeves are still snug - either I didn't increase enough or my arms have gotten larger!
I then picked up the button bans which took a big of fudging since I only picked up 2 stitches every three rows. It is the first time for this type of knitting for me. I have previously only picked up one stitch per row.
Still looking for the right buttons!
