I made several modifications by working it in the round but with flat sleeves, which made me conquer my fear of seaming (which turned out great by the way).
When I first did the yoke it came out way too long and it didn't fit right so I ripped it back and switched needles at 3 inches while placing a decrease row every other row. So the yoke turned out to be 5 inches long not counting the ribbing.
I also unpicked my cast on edge and worked a 1x1 rib for 7 rows to make it stay flat and not curl up in the back.
This was a fun KAL and I'm so happy to have finished a sweater that I can wear.

It looks great! I'm envious that you're knowledgeable enough to make your own modifications. I'm glad it came out so well!
It look so great. I've heard a couple people say that the yoke is too long in the end... eep. I wonder if I should just make the mods now or wait and see...
It's gorgeous and it fits you to a tee! Thanks for sharing your mods - I'll keep an eye on the yoke as I knit it...
Looks fantastic! Thanks so much for sharing your modifications with everyone! Wear it with pride :)
