Oh, wow!
Congratulations Masha, so excited for you!
The more you have the easier it gets, in my opinion. You focus on important issues, nurturing and nutrition, and less on perfect floors.

I must plan an easy buffet
Put the best plates out on display
My Wedgewood and Spode….

Please, please don’t feel bad. You could not have put your question in a more apologetic or humble way. I really felt for you but I had no answer for your predicament.

Thank you!
I was so proud!

Our school is tiny (only 130 students) but I am very proud to share that my son, Hugo, won the Student of the Year award last night, at our Presentation Night.

He made a brilliant off-the-cuff speech, so very very proud of him.

I can feel your frustration but your over riding love for the pattern.
My special friend Deb gave me the tip of three rows of gathers to help smooth and ease a sleeve cap. I wonder if that may help here?

I think there are a lot of variables. I have some knit that is easily 20 years old and fine!

Wash it and give the fabric a good stretch, if it doesn’t recover its shape it has probably had its day.

Oooh, looking at the size chart you may be pushing it… but since you already have it cut, I would chance it.
Maybe do a narrower side seam?

@Robin, ditto!

I will have a look in the morning, I am sure I have some.
I would love to have you round for a pot of tea and we could both have a play.

Becky, I checked out my notes on this pattern and I have made the large size and the small and I have not made mention of any discrepancies.
I am sorry not to be more help.

I am happy to share, I was given the contents of a drapery section of a small country shop. It posts very cheaply.
Let me know what you are after and I will see what I have.

Kym, I have a lot of cotton lace, I can send you some for future projects.

There once was a designer from New York
Who loved foie gras and pulled pork
Said he to his lady:
Patè is ethically shady…

@honeymadeit, you are so sweet!
