I’m not sure what is going on with the gauge for this pattern. I measured it carefully, but it seems like it is turning out too small for almost everyone. It could be the yarn (a very slippery rayon), or that I wore it a few times before measuring, but I am going to try to get to the bottom of this before anyone else ends up with a really tiny top. But I love all your projects!

This is my first pattern for Ravelry but it is untested. Plus, I wrote it up after the fact instead of while I was doing it. But the shaping is pretty simple, and I measured the real piece. I guessed on the hook size though (but I use F for all DK yarns).

I just realized this page does not mention that only one size is currently available in the pattern (Medium/Large). Because of the butterflies, it is difficult to just size this pattern up.
