Also, I love that you make me think outside the pattern - while I know that many of cashmerette patterns are made so you can mix elements, I would have never thought to add the Pembroke's sleeves to the Washington bodice, which fits you perfectly!

I had the same problem with curling edges when I was sewing a cotton knit dress recently and someone recommended spraying jersey knit with spray starch, a tip they discovered in a Craftsy course. It did work with controlling the curled edges to a manageable edge but not completely eliminating them.
