What the frock?

It's a newly finished Frock Camisole!



What's that, you say? You think I may have modified the pattern a little? Well, that goes without saying, doesn't it. :) I cast on fewer stitches than were called for along the bottom because I didn't want a loose-fitting tent-errific type top. By the time I'd done some waist shaping, I made sure to end up with the required number of stitches at the armholes. I also used seed stitch instead of reverse stockinette in the top section, because seed stitch doesn't roll at the edges. I made the straps 12 stitches wide, rather than 8, as well.

I need to re-knit part of the top of the back (sigh), but other than that, I'm verreh verreh pleased. Annnd, I finished it quickly enough to still be weather-appropriate. Hooray!
