Finito
On Columbus Day, and dispatched to Alexandra. I am anxiously awaiting word on whether it fits.
The processing of finishing isn't as dramatic as blocking but it still gives a garment its final form. For this camisole, first the side seams were sewn. Then I made a row of single crochet around the neckline and armholes - or what we call single crochet in the US, which is termed double crochet elsewhere according to my Mon Tricot stitch dictionary. Darning in the ends was the final step. I would not dare block rayon.
Here's a closer look at the neckline.
