Has anybody made the Style Arc Mavis top?



The line drawings show a fairly loose neck, but the reviews on Pattern Review make it look quite narrow.  The only photo on the Style Arc listing doesn't show the neck very well, and it has clearly been made with ribbed jersey anyway, so doesn't really give an indication of how it would be in ordinary knit jersey.

It doesn't matter terribly, because I will happily just give it an ordinary neckband, but I would like to know whether it's worth bothering with the polo in the first place.  I can't bear close fitting polos.

The other thing I wondered about was whether it would work with inserts made of woven fabric rather than jersey.
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.
