FO: Meridien

Well, it's finally done:

I'm super happy with how it turned out, too! The fabric is great. Could use a second blocking, though, so get the fronts to drape properly...


Of course, the typical back shot was necessary:


It really shouldn't have taken so long to finish, but it was worth the wait. Super cozy and ready for the fall. Too bad it's over 100 degrees here in Texas. 
I went off pattern a little bit and did a long ribbed cuff instead of the seed stitch border. I like my sleeves to fit my arms snugly, and I often push up my sleeves to 3/4 length, so the ribbing helps keep them from getting floppy and sad. 

But it's done! Woohoo!
