It’s done! Happy with the result, but process was rather slow and I’ve been making a lot of mistakes on the way. First, kept making yo’s in the wrong places, so had to unravel a couple times, then started making increases with the wrong number of rows in between them - unraveled, then miscounted sts between bust dart decreases - noticed only after completing the front, decided to leave as is, and lastly had to redo left sleeve as have managed to miscount rows and knit two more. I dunno what’s up with me this time) I will blame it on the summer.

Design is lovely, pattern is very clear and detailed, as usual, just don’t be me and pay attention to what you’re knitting!

Not particularly happy with this yarn. Pretty stiff even for linen, each of my 3 skeins had at least one knot in it, some vegetable matter and annoying slubs of fiber to pick out. Blocking makes it much nicer and I’m happy with resulting fabric, but knitting experience was below average.

Small note - 3 mm needles were used to BO sleeves, otherwise was too tight.
