DeChanel Cardigan - Finished!
The photos are less stellar and I might try for some better shots but for now this is IT!
The photo on the right shows sleeves and blind pockets without the trim, which I wasn't sure if I should add it or not. The left photo shows the trim added.
I'm happy with the result, it fits perfectly, feels very comfortable and the trim (crocheted) even adds a wee bit of weight.
The pattern is my own and I made it up as I went along. There is very slight shaping for the waist and there are short row darts for the bust. I took the neckline lower than my inspiration piece and did 3/4 sleeves instead of full length.
The cardigan was worked in fine fingering sock yard (wool blend) in black and light beige using 2.75 bamboo needles.
