Swatch is ok. I will do this fabulous sweater with another yarn than owl, hoping to get the same light soft look.

Back is done. Starting top front today. This is nice and easy!

All done and very happy with it. The pattern is great. I found no fault in it.
I chose to knit stockinette stitch on the wrong side instead of reverse stockinette on the right side. I am not very keen on purling!
I also added one inch to the sleeves because I have long arms.
Apart from that, I followed the pattern closely.
The yarn is very soft but I am not sure I like the tiny flecks of black nylon in it.
All in all, couldn’t be happier with the result.
