Notes

Front 160S Ten 5.1 210R Boat neck over 22 R
Back 230 R Boat neck over 12 R
Rib in 1K1P in 2mm 20 R
Shoulder BO 2.5 mm
Arms / Body BO 3 mm
3needle BO Seam in 3.5 mm

I worked with 2 silks, one shiny = SS Body. Added Ribbing at the top, find this a better finish than the crew neck of the original. For the ribbing I added a Filament Silk in Taupe for texture and color.
Picked up 3S out of 4R from Body to finish the sides.
I shortened and tapered the sleeves because I don’t like the look of wide sleeves. Will consider less decreases next time to maintain more the look of an oversized shirt. The Boat Neck in the front got too pointy at the neckline, make it more shallow next time.

To play with the used needle sizes for the different bind off’s worked well except for the finish of the body, it’s not rigid enough will consider for the bind off to work with 1shiny+2fillament silk threads to get a more stable finish because the look of the Rib in itself is perfect.
