Note	This is my third time with this fantastic pattern. I mixed 2 different fabric (teal rayon knit and printed nylon mesh knit). The mesh knit has too much body and didn't sit well as a cowl so I had to hand stitch it down in several places and sewed a washer in the center front to weigh it down. I also raised the neckline a bit for the inner layer. I got tired of the original (slightly puffy) sleeves so I used the free sleeve model 5380 without the pleats to make a butterfly sleeves. (I added a bit more fullness and smoothed the hem.) I didn't hem the sleeves so it can remain light. I'm very pleased with it.
