Worked an extra 1.5 inches before the waist decreases. I worked 1 less waist decrease, and began bust increases at about 12” from the bottom. I knit to 16.75 inches before setting the body aside to work on the sleeves.

Cast on 48 for sleeves and increased every 10 rows until I hit the number specified in the 34” pattern. Then I knit until sleeves measured 14”. I like a little bit longer sleeve than specified in the pattern. This is more like a 3/4 length sleeve for me. I also wanted a more snug fit around the arm at the cuff of the sleeve. I originally tried it as written, but it seemed too loose for me.

I love the result! I can see myself making several more. I definitely enjoy this fit more than a standard raglan. Well worth making.
