The sweater shown here is Cindy B.'s version of Anker's Summer Shirt knit in Myrtle. She says it: turned out beautifully. The drape is luxurious.
The one modification I made to the pattern was on the hem of both the sleeves and bottom edge. Instead of ribbing, I knitted to the length I wanted, then knit one row of K2t YO to BOR, followed by 5 rows in SS which I turned up and hand sewed the hems. I got the idea from a photo I saw online so I cannot take credit for it!
