I left sleeve island :)

I left sleeve island today. Shoulders are seamed :). While I was hoping for a seamingly peaceful day, I decided to knit the button band before putting the sleeves on. Much easier to work with right? Well yes it's easier to work with, but there are over 500 stitches in this button band. I sat there picking up stitches thinking only an inch, no sweat....I'm only half way into this button band and I'm bored with it. another half an inch and I can put the finishing touches on this sweater and put it to box.
