I wanted roses allover! The stitch pattern is ideal for a wide v-neck, but it was too wide for my taste. So I added a neck band worked separately, consisting of one pattern repeat as per chart A, folded double. This now was rather large, so I changed it again.
The sleeves are mostly straight. I only added 5 knit stitches on both sides above the elbow and worked the decreases for the sleeve caps intuitively.
Unfortunately, the digital camera never gets the colour right.
