My gauge was a little tighter than the pattern so that brought it in to my 34 size.

I wanted a higher neckline so CO for the smallest size (30) with the smaller needle. Row 2: Changed to larger needle and gradually increased in that and the next few rows to 97 sts.

Buttonholes every 16 rows, total of 9. Reinforced with blanket stitch so they don’t stretch out of shape.

Knitted body 2” longer. Did increase for hips total of 6 times instead of 4 times to accommodate larger hip measurement.

Sleeves:
Decreased 8 times instead of 7. Worked even for 17 rows. Changed to smaller needle - k1p1 rib for 17 rows.

Bottom garter band was floppy, even after blocking. Ripped and reknit in smaller needle. Still a little loose at edge so threaded a needle with elastic thread and wove it through back of sts at bottom. Pulled it in and tied it off - now good!
