Growing Green Gable???

This is a question for those of you who have finished. I made my GG on the large, non-figure-hugging side on purpose. I tried it on and it was okay--maybe even a tad looser than intended, but not tragic. Then I soked it in Jacq's Flora SOAK (yum!!) and laid it out to block. It looks HUGE!!! Has anyone had this experience with this yarn (Cotton Fleece) and pattern? I would be one sad girl if I need to take it all apart...

Mine grew from 33" to 36" across the bust after soaking and laying it flat to dry. In my case, that was good, because I was off gauge a wee bit. I think cotton does tend to grow.

Thanks, Katie. That's not the best news for me since it may now be a GG built for two! I was hoping the wool content might mitigate the growing issue. I'll have to see what happens once it's dry.
