Slightly Sassy Rambouillet- Finished!

I finished this up on Friday afternoon and blocked it right away.  I did I-cord bind offs on all of my edges using the Lilac skein that I had.  I didn’t quite use up all of my handspun, but I did use up most of it.  It is a nice t-shirt, very comfy.  I did screw up a bit on the neckline when I added the extra rows to increase the armhole depth.  I should have done the last two neck increases right away, joined to work in the and then worked the rest of the armhole increases.  I sewed the neck edge together where the slope changed to make a little key hole.  The top still fit without that mod, but it fits a bit better with the mod.  I made a note on my pattern modification in case I knit another one, which I just might do.  It is an easy pattern, and seems to work great with handspun yarn.

Pattern:  Slightly Sassy V by Aimee Sher
Yarn:  My handspun Rambouillet 
Needles:  US 6 (4.0 mm) for the body, and US 4 (3.5 mm) for the I-Cord.
