I’m fairly sure I’m going to leave the sleeves that short, mostly because I think it’ll make a nice late summer/fall top.

Both sleeves are still on scrap yarn because I’m not entirely sure how I’ll finish them yet. Should I go for a few rows of ribbing before binding off? Or bind off normally and add a crochet edging? Or something else entirely?
