    Happy Birthday!!! And, oh, do I love this top!!! I loved the pattern and have it in my “one day when I learn to draft, since it’s not in my size” list, but I thought the colours were… not me. This is SO MUCH prettier!!! Love it and your execution is flawless!!!

      Oh wow, thank you again. There is a nice tute on how to increase or decrease a pattern size. I will send it to you once I re-find it…again. Lol. And thank you once again.

      You are very welcome! The problem with grading though, is that according to what I read one can’t (or maybe shouldn’t) grade between “types” of sizes – I am in the plus sizes (very ;-)) and if I recall correctly, it’s a Misses top. But I think I will be able to draft it or change one of my existing patterns into it.

      Oh ok. I understand. But still, when you get grading down pack…please make and post. I am sure it will come out beautiful. You may can find a similar pattern and change some features….

      I definitely will do that! ;-) The only problem is to get actual time to sew! ;-)

    You look lovely in this – and again, I am impressed with your abilities in using knit fabrics.

    Very nice top Honey! The “ruching” (is that how you spell it?) on the sleeves is really cool.

      Thank you, Nessy. The sleeves are comfortable. I thought at first they would be a little annoying but they are just dandy.
