First crochet garment :)


did it!  Crocheted and finished without too much pain.  Doris Chan short cardigan, from her book Everyday Crochet.



Modifications: extra row of pattern under the arms to give more room in the  arm hole, length is longer than the Mei Mei pattern, shorter than the Soft Serve, short sleeves and a different shell edging along the bottom and front edges.



It was too small when just off the hook  but I knew from my swatch it was going to stretch with blocking - and it has!

So happy!  Here it is, still blocking, more pictures when it is dry.
