knitting a sleeve - help!!

Technical advice required! I am a very slow knitter and have spent ages knitting a baby jacket picture here and have just realised I have increased ither end of each 5th row instead of each 4th row when doing the sleeve. Do you think I need to rip it out? So long as the end number of stiches is right and the arm length is OK (I think it will be) do you think I can leave it?

I can't face redoing it!!

I would say so, but it might make for slightly clingy sleeves. And you'd need to make the other sleeve the same. Lovely pattern btw!

What a gorgeous little jacket. You should be perfectly alright with that. Have you finished the whole sleeve yet? Otherwise it might be worth sticking an extra increase in after two rows,
If you knew how often I have done that it doesn't even matter that much if you cannot remember exactly how you did it when it comes to knitting the second sleeve. Knitting is very forgiving and nobody is going to spend time comparing the number of stitches on each sleeve.
Don't rip it out, it really doesn't matter. Have you joined Ravelry yet?
