Notes

My gauge was off by 0.5 sts per 4inches so my finished garment size is around 47”

I knit the length of the body 2 inches longer.

I ran out of yarn just before I got the sleeves as long as I had wanted so did the cuffs in the contrast grey colour and knit the cuffs a little longer than in the pattern to get the extra length.

Added the grey colour as a contrast band for the horizontal braid at the back of the garment.
