My First Fitted Knit!

I've been following along with the KAL for a while but only recently had time to cast on for my first fitted knit.  I fell in love with this color of Colinette Point 5 after seeing it in a fellow Raveler's trade page.  We made a swap and I cast on for the Carie Cropped Cardigan the day it arrived.  The color is a bit darker and more saturated than pictured.

There was quite a bit of frogging and reknitting because I wasn't sure what size to make.  I settled at size xs.  I like the raglan sleeve depth of the xs (no baggy underarms for me) but would have prefered the boob coverage of a larger size.   As is, it's still not too bad.  I added extra front opening edge increases.
