Finished the yoke last night. Very enjoyable for me, in smaller bits at a time. Have to pay attention pretty much in each row. Made a few mistakes for sure, especially often on the BOR section. Fixed some, others just fudged LOL. Nothing majorly wrong & I think it should be fine. Will block the yoke today.

I added several rows stockinette to lengthen yoke to armhole. (My row gauge tighter than pattern.) Also moved 6 st each side from back to front at sleeve split.

Didn’t drop back down needle size for main body.

I won at yarn chicken!!! I will block it tomorrow, and add more notes.

My collar was too loose/wobbly - probably too loose cast-on & I should have gone down a needle size for collar. So I folded it over & sewed it down-- which also gave the bonus of it not being as high, which im not generally a fan of.
