When the full yoke is reached, the stitches for the sleeves are placed on holders or scrap yarn. The body is rejoined and worked to the bottom hem and bound off. Sleeve stitches are then picked up and sleeves are worked to the cuff. The sweater is them embellished as desired. A bunch of options are included in the pattern, but feel free to be creative!
