When using the measurements I started crocheting a M but later started again with a XS because the M was going to be far to big.

The yarn had little joins all the way through it. I has to cut these out and join the yarn through the crochet so I would get a smooth surface.

The pattern was too big for me, I had to take 4 rows of the top of the bodice back and front. I ended up with 9 patterns on the skirt.
