Notes

This pattern was fun and I’m thrilled with how it turned out. It’s a pretty easy pattern, but the yarn overs keep you from feeling bored.

Seaming the sleeves left little room for error. It took a little bit of wrangling to ease the sleeve into the armhole, but it doesn’t feel tight or uncomfortable when worn.

The only modifications I made to the pattern was to knit the body a little longer and to sew the neck up a fair way. I think the narrower neckline (I don’t think that’s the best way to describe it but I’m going with it) makes the top look more casual, but it suits my body shape better this way.
