Remember the sleeves, honey. In a quest to end the horror that is garter stitch lace, I am compelled to share my modified Remembering Honey sleeves.

Wavy Border - Harmony Guides 250 Knitting Stitches - Volume 2 Cast on 13 stitches. Row 1 (and all odd rows): k2, p across to last two stitches, k2 Row 2: sl1, k3, yo, k5, yo, k2tog, yo, k2 Row 4: sl1, k4, sl1, k2tog, psso, k2, (yo, k2tog) twice, k1 Row 6: sl1, k3, sl1, k1, psso, k2, (yo, k2tog) twice, k1 Row 8: sl1, k2, sl1, k1, psso, k2, (yo, k2tog) twice, k1 Row 10: sl1, k1, sl1, k1, psso, k2, (yo, k2tog) twice, k1 Row 12: k1, sl1, k1, psso, k2, yo, k1, yo, k2tog, yo, k2 Row 14: sl1, (k3, yo) 2 times, k2tog, yo, k2
I did 6 repeats and bound off. I picked up stitches along the inside of the garter stitch border (had I planned it better, there would have been no garter stitch border on one side, but it ended up looking fine regardless). I did decreases in order to arrive at the proper sleeve stitch count and proceeded as normal from there.
Current count: back finished, two sleeves done, and about five inches of the front complete. Might we have an FO this week?
