Notes

got gauge of 22st/32rows; row gauge close enough…

hmm, measured my bust and it is about 42 or so (depending how deep a breath I take). Must have lost a bit of weight :-)

Anyway, some of the other folks who knit this talk about negative ease (though no mention in pattern) and I definitely like the photo in Rav with the pattern (which has negative ease) over the one on the pattern itself (which has a bit of positive ease). So I’m going to try that and see.

This is almost done. Tried it on before casting off and it fits great. Not too tight but tight enough for shape.

Doing a couple of rows of garter stitch around the armholes because they seemed a bit big and needed some structure.
