Mods for 38 bust-cast on 270 knit in round. Sleeve alterations too due to limited yarn amounts. Love the stitch pattern - pretty elastic so fit is forgiving and very easily memorable with stitch markers to guide decreases…Notes below…

Twist on a attempt one. Needle broke on attempt two. Is this project cursed?!?

Change colour for first round and increase 9 stitches front and back to bring up to 144 total around - 288 total. Will be ignoring the increases and knit straight to armpits for 16” (ie working like the Jan sweater).
