Notes

I was planning to wear this under sweaters, but it’s cute enough to wear it as a summer top.

Modifications:
Entered larger circumferences because of smaller gauge.
Increased at the hips.
Ribbed hem instead of folded.

My numbers from the calculator:

A: 70
B: 76
C: 92
D: 108
E: 56
F: 61
G1: 8
G2: 12
H1: 232
H2: 240
J: 2
K1: 7
K2: 10
L: 212 (this seems a bit large. I will go for 204 or 208, which makes K 8 or 9)

Found the last store to sell the pink spring colorway!

Swatching using the Lemon sock yarn.

Gauge on 3,0mm (looks okay when stretched to 24st/10cm):
Before washing: 30st, 44 rows
After washing: 30st, 45 rows

Choosing the 3,0mm needle. Row gauge is good, probably not extra rows needed.

Gauge on 2,75mm (looks tense when stretched):
Before washing: 32st, 50 rows
After washing: 32st, 52 rows

Entered my measurements into the pattern calculator. It seems to want the top to stretch to 24 st/10cm. That’s too much stretch for me, also given my smaller gauge.
I will adjust the numbers a bit, so it stretches to 27st/10cm.

Actual measurements:
Upper bust 34,5 inch, full bust 35 inch, waist 30,5 inch, side breast ll do robbing or the folded hem from the pattern
