I really dislike sewing pieces together. It is more that I want to be done when the knitting is finished than not being able to sew a fine seam, so I adapted the pattern to knit in the round and am doing a raglan sleeve for the bodice.

Cast on 374 stitches, eliminating one stitch so the pattern repeat flows into the first stitch. There will be 12 scallops around the bottom.

Working in the round, follow pattern working the even rows as follows:

P the P stitches and K the K stitches and YOs as they present themselves.

Row 16: K across.

Final row 16: K across.

Knitting finished on the 30th. Blocked and ready for buttons and ribbon on the 31st.
