Notes
The neckline looks quite wide and the model in the picture seems to have sizeable shoulders. After recently finishing a similarly shaped linen sweater, Daicey, I’d suggest that if your shoulders are on the smaller side (like mine) you might consider omitting some stitches in the neck and back area. Always check the measurements in the pattern schematic to get a good idea about fit.
