The pattern is written in a format and terminology that wasn’t familiar to me -- not wrong, just different -- but once I worked thru that it was smooth sailing. I’m pleased with the outcome and will be making more!

The real beauty of this pattern is its versatility -z you really can make it your own!

Mods:

Started with 90 stitches and did 2x1 rib collar on US8.

Switch to US10.

Did not do short rows in front, (but next time will add 3-4 knot rounds before starting texture pattern)

Put sleeve stitches on holder, picked them up along with 12 stitches under arm, knit to 3.5” then 8 rounds 2x1 rib with US8.

Knit body to 7”, then 8 rounds 2x1 rib on US8.

All BO done with US10.
