Notes

Started even if my gauge is different from pattern gauge. According to my calculations, I might have to lose some weight before I finish :) even if I chose the largest size (one size larger than I would have needed if the gauge was identical).
Well written pattern, wonderful yarn.

The mismatched gauge and higher size were perfect, now that I can try it on - very forgiving pattern, can easily adjust to a yarn weight up or down.
However, doing a pattern on the hem was not a great idea, I think I have to frog this part, the 3-colour row is not stretchy enough for my hips
