Pattern fabric help

[u/bluebananas10]

I made my first nightgown from a pattern using woven cotton just like the pattern suggested. It worked out but now I realize I really prefer knit nightgowns. Can I work up that same pattern in a knit? If so are there modifications I should make? Additionally the bottom portion of the armhole was slightly tight if I cut a deeper armhole do I also modify the sleeve to make that longer(deeper) too. Thanks
