L Sleeve is in
Why the puff sleeve?
DD2 is feminine and
frilly enough to pull it off. It's a spring/summer sweater.Does DD like it?
She says wants a longer sleeve. Sounds like she's describing a straight 3/4 length sleeve.
Do I like it?
At first no. The bluebells all over the sleeve are a bit much. After she tried it on, it's growing on me. I'm going to leave it alone, work some more of the body, and think about it.

Fashionably Late in "08 Clapotis KAL
Decided to join my first KAL: Joan's Clapotis KAL. Please see link at sidebar.
Back in 2004 I was barely pattern literate and had just discovered Knitty, so I wasn't part of the craze.
I have some Trendsetter Taos in my stash I've tried unsuccessfully to swap/sell that should be just right for Clapotis.
If N/N2 turns out to be Niece, I may give it to her. It's not a typical blankie, but would look wonderful on SIL as a wrap over baby. Niece could grow into it and have a real shawl someday, a little keepsake from her Aunt Sarah.
