My improvised diagonal cardigan is done! I didn't use a pattern, just cast on, decreased and increased for waist shaping where I thought the waist would be, did the same for the arm holes and neckline, and crossed my fingers. The neckline ended up too wide and the sweater itself a bit too narrow, so I did an inch-wide band of seed stitch (boring as all get-out to knit, but it doesn't roll at the edges) along the neckline and both front edges. I need to wash and block it, then it'll be wearable. Yay.
Next up: Marnie MacLean's Bella Paquita pattern.
