Is this an idea for what to do with UFOs? If you start the project with the sleeves, when you get tired of knitting, just stitch them to the hem of your tee shirt sleeves. Or, this one in particular, is attached with buttons. That would make the sleeves easier to remove for washing, change in climate, coming to your senses, etc.
Excellent save for various situations: Ran out of yarn, Ran out of time, Figured out it wasn't going to go with anything in the wardrobe - so really flaunt that it won't match,
Great way to use up little bits of yarn. If the cat, or mice, or toddler, get into the knitting bag part way through the project and ruin the yarn. Fun way to salvage what's left of a favorite heirloom sweater? I doubt it. If it was fun fur, she could have interchangeable gorilla arms!
Fixes for this disaster: It could actually be cute in a lacy stitch or a fine yarn that might otherwise be inapproriate for an entire top. Especially if it in some way coordinated with any other piece of her wardrobe.
There is a school in my area with really bad HVAC control. Maybe this is the solution. In the classrooms where it's 100 f. take the sleves off, elsewhere in the building where it's 50 f. button them on. And there's less of a security issue than with coats.
Hmmm ... Suggestion to the school board:
