Notes

I love this more than I thought I would. I received 3 compliments the first day I wore it.

Modifications
Regular stockinette instead of twisted.
Cast on 8 stitches for each shoulder.
Added a purl row after 3 inches of ribbing to help the neck band lay properly without shifting.
Two inches between neck band and bottom ribbing.
Garter stitch down side seam line.

I would have made it a little longer to hide the momma belly but I ran out of yarn. As long as I remember the belly spanx, it looks pretty good.
