Notes

I used the pattern as a starting point as I liked the neckline, but did fewer yoke increases, did yarn-over increase, shorter sleeves, and omitted the duplicate stitch.

Also, because I had so little yarn, I added a block of yellow. The yellow is an unknown yarn, probably cotton and a little thicker than the Rowan.

I really liked the fit of it, but it shrank in the wash/block phase. So to resize it, I frogged the body back to the start of the sleeves and knit the bust portion with the thicker yellow yarn (so more space for the boobies), then reknit the rest of the body in 4.5mm instead of 4mm.

The photo shows how it looked before I did the re-knit.
