1930s Monarch Baby Sweater

This sweater is much more attractive in person - it's soft and cozy, and the colors much more muted. The pattern posted online (http://dragonknits.webs.com/patterns.htm) is missing several steps, so I improvised the sleeve lengths and trim. I suspect the sleeves alone should be gathered, but I added a border to the bottom edge and a slight decrease to the neckline. It's a baby bomber jacket?
