New Sweater Project - Simple Knitted Bodice

I haven't knit a sweater in a long time!  I cast on for the Simple Knitted Bodice by Stephanie Japel last week, and I'm already this far!  I really wanted to get to the point where you join the body in the round under the neckline so I think I just kept on going!  This is also my first project for Project Spectrum using green for North.  I bought this yarn back around Christmas time, so I'm glad it fits into PS so well.  The yarn is Cascade 220 Heathers.  I don't think I am going to have enough yarn to make the long sleeve version of the sweater, so this might turn out to have short sleeves.  I'm ok with that.  I'm knitting the medium size of this pattern, and I've only had to make one mod so far.  I don't think I'm quite getting gauge because I didn't swatch, but I liked where the join at the bottom of the neckline ended when I tried it on.  However, I didn't like that the lace detail around the waist was going to be right around my boobs, so I continued knitting about 5 inches of stockinette below the neckline, and now I'm just starting the lace waist detail.  I tried the sweater on, and the waist detail is at a good spot now.
