Notes

I took the measures myself and did them incorrectly resulting in over large arm holes and a too small neckhole that I had to machine steek and cut away before I could rib the neck. I think it would better if I had used negative ease instead of zero ease since I prefer a slighter snugger fit and should have completed the fair isle portion higher up for better aesthetics, but am happy overall that it is done.

Finished measurements: Bust 36.5”/93cm waist 35”/89cm
Length: front 16” back 21”
Neck opening 5.75” wide (7.75” before ribbing)
