Modified to top down, knit in the round. The smallest size had too much ease for the look I wanted, so I used this yarn that had a smaller gauge than the pattern suggested, knit the small size, and thus made an xs with less ease. This also made the neckline less wide. I picked up neckline stitches at the end and made a ribbing of about 1/2”. At the end, I sewed in some pale rose pink Swarovski crystals that came from a Rowan pack and they look gorgeous.
