Kalona - Body and One Sleeve

I finished up the body (up to the arm holes) almost a week ago - lots of knitting time in the office - and immediately cast on the first sleeve.
I knew that I was probably going to be starting the sleeve, so I had grabbed the appropriate needles and made sure I had the pattern in my phone knitCompanion app, but forgot to grab a stitch marker, so I had to improvise with a piece of yarn.  Of course once I got past the lace the sleeve went quickly.
I’m almost done with what the pattern calls for, but I’m debating making the sleeves full length, and adding more increases to give me a bit more room.  I need to check the schematics on the sleeve diameter and the width for the shoulders and see if more room would be a good thing.  I did buy an extra skein of yarn, so I have plenty.

Pattern:  Kalona by Alison Green
Yarn:  Berroco Ultra Wool Fine
Needle:  US 3 (3.25 mm)
