Notes	I've made this twice - once in a pink knit with a modest amount of horizontal stretch only and again in a black & white knit with vertical and horizontal stretch, with no interfacing applied in either version. The collar stands up nicely and holds it shape in the pink, but just flops down in the black and white. Both versions look nice in their own way, though, but it's something to consider if you want yours to look exactly like the picture. I lengthened the sleeves to elbow length and shortened the hem by a huge amount, just my style preference. It fits perfectly without any adjustments. If I have to come up with a negative, it is that the bust darts are very horizontal - a more angled dart might be more flattering, but you'd really only notice it in light-coloured fabric.
