Used sizing info from Flax Light to adapt pattern for a newborn.

It turned out too big from what I know about newborns (which is virtually zero so far :) except that they are smaller than you’d expect). So Katrin had the great idea to leave it as a vest for now and add sleeves only if it fits correctly next winter.
