Modifications were pretty much the same as the green one I made, but with narrower shoulders on the front piece.
Used a 6-stitch 1×1 rib at each armhole edge.
Made the top longer, and also worked 5 rows of garter stitch at the hem instead of 3.
Did waist shaping on the front piece to match the back.
Started the V-neck 3 cables higher than specified in the pattern.
