heading for the finish line
It took all night, but now I have two sleeves! These will go nicely with the front and back I already knitted.

both sleeves blocking

The strips at the top of the sleeve are for the saddle shoulder, which means that the center braid will run all the way up to the neckline. You can see another sweater that uses this technique here. That sweater ("Cromarty" from an Alice Starmore book that is actually still in print) has a larger pattern on the saddle, but it's the same idea.

And another shot of the sleeve pattern:
