Sadly no. I have a pattern for a spiral afghan, & I've noticed lots of similar patterns online, I made it until I had the width of my shoulders. A friend pinned the armhole width while it was draped on me, I did a row of chain between the pins then continued the spiral. When the front overlapped to my liking, I folded and sewed the collar in place. I had planned to continue then spiral on the sleeves But couldn't get it to sit right so gave up and settled for striped sleeves.
