So there’s multiple notes I need to add for future reference.
1. When finishing armhole shaping 1 and 2 , take note what lace row you finish with. The pattern reminds you about this before you start this section but imo the reminder needed to be at the end of this section itself instead of before .

Mine finished with lace row 2

2.Left front section , picking it up from the neckline , pattern says pick up from original cast on , if i did that , next row would be RS row , so picked up from the neckline , so set up row is on the WS.

3.Join fronts measured 6 inches but don’t forget to do the armhole shaping 1 and 2 . By the time you finish the armhole , it should be on the same lace row as the back. Which was row 2 .

4.After joined the body , row 2 is the starr of work in the round laces
