Long-tail cast on, but I made sure not to cast the stitches on too close together/tightly.

US 5 for ribbing, US 6.5 for body, US 7 for sleeves (mostly because I don’t have a 12” needle in 6.5!)

I have approximately 3” of ease in the bust (depending on the day, lol). I knit more length in the body - 13”, for my preference. I am 5’7” for reference!

The sweater feels like a soft, puffy cloud. Chainette-structured yarn works beautifully in the pattern. I love how it looks in the slipped stitches, but I think any yarn would work! It just depends on the look you’d like.
