Notes

Since I used a smaller yarn than suggested and I wanted to make it a little larger (and more like a full shirt), I had to made some adjustments.

First: I started by casting on more stitches.
Second: I made it longer by adding more lace sections, and (since I had a smaller gauge) I also added more repeats to each lace sections. Furthermore, I added an extra lace mesh stitch to add more variety.
Third: I added sleaves. After sewing the side seams, I picked up all the stitches around each armhole and worked in stockinette for a 2.5 inches.

I didn’t finish this in time for the ravellenics by a few rows, seaming, and sleeves. I’m finished it a couple days later though, and am happy I did!
