Tea Leaves Cardigan Finished

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!
