need some more guidance with the sleeves for pattern Patons 1082.
Thank for your help ( salmonmac) clarifying the front neckline instructions. I have completed the front of the sweater. Here’s a pic.

I am looking for some additional guidance regarding the sleeves.
From what I understand from reading the pattern, both sleeves are completed identical. Is this correct?
The sleeves require increases and keeping in pattern. (Attached picture of pattern section. I’m doing adult small size).
I have a few additional questions
What is the best increase to use at each end of the row? Do I do these increases after first 2 stitches and before the last two stitches?
To keep in pattern…
Am I correct the first 2 and the last 2 stitches are kept the same as they divider (not sure if this is the proper terminology) between the designs?
To include the new increase stitches, I look at the repeated stitches and add the next one to the right (for the start of the row) and the next one to the left (for the end of the row). Is this logic correct and does it make sense. Here’s what I mean…
Row 1 - after increase of 3 st at each end I would do the following
P2 k1 p2 (k8 p2 tw2r p2) x2 panel (p2 tw2l p2 k8) x2 p2 k1 p2
Additional Question when there are insufficient additional stitches to do tw2r or tw2l do you just knit the stitches until you have 2 additional needed?
Similarly, when I get to row 3 with the c4b and c4f, how do I handle it when the increase is not 4 stitches? Do I just knit the stitches until there are 3 and an do partial cable?
I hope my questions make sense.
Thank you in advance for your help.

It’s been a decade or possibly two in the making. Feels fabulous to have completed it. I owe a big thank you to you for all your help with the pattern. Without your help, I think it still wouldn’t be completed! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
