Notes

Pink for the inside, purple for the outside. Maybe a white accent for the center neckline bit.

Because I have a thing for symmetry:

I made sure to cast on with a long enough tail left over to slip-stitch along the Chain 15 for the first arm-loop, to make it match the slip-stitching on the 2nd Ch 15 arm-loop.

Row 3 of the Skirt: I did the first 5 clusters as written, then skipped 1 stitch (at the centre point of the bodice,) did 5 more clusters, skipped 2 stitches, 2 CD in last stitch. Ch2, turn.

Finished!
Shortened the skirt by 2 rows, as apparently my tension on the skirt was more relaxed than on the side pieces, and they would otherwise have been much too short for this. (Not enough purple left over to add rows.)

Made up my own motif for the center neckline accent. (The one in the pattern didn’t come out like in the pics, and I couldn’t be bothered to figure out why.)
