I received this yarn as a birthday gift and thought that the vivid yellow color (aptly named 'Yolk') would make the embroidery stitch on the bodice look like a field of buttercups. I loved the pattern and think that it is the most expertly, clearly written pattern that I have ever used. I loved that the pattern author repeatedly gave stitch counts BETWEEN THE MARKERS. I chose to make plain sleeves as I thought the detailed flair treatment on the sleeves distracted from the yoke design. A note about doing the embroidery stitch: my needles were not quite pointy enough and made this harder than it should have been.
