Needles: Denise #7 & Addi #3 32"& Clover #3 12"
Other: Sequins & beading thread (local bead store)
Finally, the SKB is finished! I decided not to use sequins on the sleeves and the neck band. I like the way this sweater turned out. I was going to try the Magic Loop method on the sleeves, but with the lace and small needle, maybe next time (with something a little simpler). I knitted additional 22 rows before the lace pattern, so the lace part will kind of line up with the waist lace pattern. And I didn't do as much increases after the lace, I didn't want a big bell sleeves. This picture here is pre-block, I just couldn't wait to put it on and take a picture.

Your SKB came out great! I think I'm going to "slim" down the sleeves too - I don't want them to be too wide at the bottom. But I don't have to worry about the sleeves for a really long while since I just joined to knit in the round. Finally. Must feel great to be done! The color is cool too!
Congrats! It's finally done. It looks great! I agree the slimmer and shorter sleeves are probably better and easier to wear. So they won't get in the way when you are trying to catch a running 3-year-old boy!
