Hoping to finish this in time for Christmas. Knitting up a storm!

12/18: Body done to the sleeve join, one sleeve ready to join, second sleeve nearly ready. About to run out of the chocolate, and there’s definitely not enough in the swatch to finish. I might be able to get more at the yarn shop, but I’m not optimistic. Maybe there will be a Christmas miracle?

Went up a needle size for the color work in the arms, because I was worried the sleeves would be too tight. I think this will do the trick.

Went back to original needle size for the yoke. Hoping the sleeves loosen up a little after blocking. Since I’ve been worried about this, I came up with an ingenious solution! I found some old poster board in a closet and had my husband tape it into two my-arm-sized cones (using my arm) and I inserted them into the sleeves to block the sleeves to fit my arms.
