The fit is perfect!

This is a beautiful pattern and I like very much the lace. It’s such a versatile garment for the spring wardrobe.

To me it’s reversible and it may even look better on the wrong side. (I just discovered this morning that it looks equally pretty as a cowl!)

I used a lighter weight yarn and the finished garment measures about 33” at the chest, perfect for me.

Modifications:

• Casted on with 8mm needle using the German twisted cast on method and continued to knit one garter ridge (3 rnds) with 8mm needle and it rendered a very stretchy and neat neckline.
• Knit half a pattern more for the body.
• Knit 6 rounds of garter rib for the sleeves to match the bottom.

The yarn is just so yummy and I really like the color.

But I was kind of disappointed to find two knots in my second hank, fortunately, they could be cut away at convenient breaks.
