Prototyped in much more technical detail over at Ski Sweater the Elder.

Also, my Little Sister loves Elvis

Mods:

• CO 340 in a 2x2 rib on size 0 needles using my favorite: Ysoldas 2x2 Provisional tubular caston Ideally, I would have used her Long-tail tubular cast on, but after two attempts with dropped stitches, I decided the more challenging technique probably works better when you dont have 340 chances to screw it up.
• Decreased to 280 and moved to size 2 needles for lower colorwork. I’ve said it before, but worth repeating: the lower colorwork naturally narrows exactly where you don’t want it to. Proceed with loose gauge.
• Decreased to 204 for the body by adding two rounds of decreases to the last part of the lower colorwork.
• Short row bust darts: Increase two stitches every three rows.
• To eliminate the mysterious boob pucker in the prototype, I am using a 9-inch zipper, rather than a 12 inch zipper.

WIP Reminders:

• 2-inches shorter

• 4-inch shorter cuffs

• Fill in more on the back of neck.

• Shorter collar one inch.
