I think the design of this pattern is really flattering for all sizes, and is such a great elevated basic! I really struggle working with knits, so this is a great pattern to practice and get better with a short and sweet project. However, specifically using the projector file, I found the notes and labels were too tiny to read either on my computer screen or projected unless I manually magnified. I also found the pattern instructions were a bit wordy and hard to follow on some steps, mostly regarding the hem and neckline bindings, but the addition of the tutorial for the picot lace was great, and turned out beautifully! I will definitely make this pattern multiple times to add basics to my closet and get better working with knits!

the top looks super cute and was a great beginner project. I added length to the body so it was less cropped.
