Notes

LOVE this wear it all the time. Maybe could have made a medium. 38.5” bust. US size med top if this helps someone smile

Buttons by WoodenHeartButtons. Etsy link

MODS:
: Twisted rib for all ribbing
: 10 rows at hem & 11 rows at cuffs (b/c I was playing yarn chicken. Otherwise would have done the full number)
: Started button holes at 1.5” (8 sts) & made 5
: All bind-offs: decrease bind off in pattern. Video. Start at 10:37
: Buttonband/collar picked up stitches: ribbing 1:1, sides 3:4, neck 1:1
: Did not pick sts under arm per pattern. Kept getting a hole. Picked up 7 and per Video to close holes under arm. 1st round resolved sts picked up per video. 2nd decrease 1st and last sts down to 5. 66 sts total.
: Sleeves - decreased to 40 sts k2tog, k to last 3, ssk k1 every 5 rounds starting at round 8 ending on round 68:
8, 13, 18, 23, 28, 33, 38, 43, 48, 53, 58, 63, 68

3/2 fits great and I love it! Great pattern. Would have liked more detailed schematics on the dimensions i.e. length from underarm to cuff, etc. Just a few grams of wool left. Sleeves could be a little more fitted. Probably could have done with 4 buttons.
3/1 Just need to sew on the buttons
2/20 Buttonband/collar finished
2/18 Bottom finished. Measures 25cm from under arm to hem.
2/8 size check when front panels are at 33 sts. Decided to make lg.

1/31 Unsure about size. I’m right between med & lg. So I’ll try on as I go and see what happens.
