Sory it didnt work for you. You write such great informative reviews. Grading down so much may have thrown drafting off.

Too bad this didn't work for you. You did a great job of explaining why, though.

At least now you've tried the company's tops. I've read elsewhere about how the criss-cross line falls at an odd bust area for some others who've tried this one.

I would hope that grading down only one size wouldn't throw off the drafting.

I gave this one the toss too. My experience was pretty much the same, and it isn't worth adjusting this pattern when you already have ones that fit. I did like the neck treatment and will use it on other patterns-the ones that fit:).

Sorry it doesn't do what you want but this is a great review. I find her tops are very long and have very narrow armholes, which actually work for me. But you are right not to struggle with this when other patterns are available.
