Wind-up: Because my mum is more xxs than xs (across shoulders: 34cm; shoulder to hip: 43cm; hip to underarm: 31.5cm; shoulder to wrist: 42cm) , I had to resize the jacket somewhat. I didn't worry about the width since Rowan patterns are thankfully slender in width, but I did shorten the overall length and the sleeves. She says it fits, but I would like to check it for myself the next time I see her. I screwed up on the front shaping (the 'seam' should near the opening end, not the sides) and made stingy and unsightly mid-row yarn joins. Not doing that again...
