It's a surprise!!!






I am knitting my first Baby Surprise Jacket, designed by Elizabeth Zimmerman. I purchased the pattern at my LYS and the yarn at a store in Louisville. I love this yarn. It is Seacoast Yarn in Baby Rainbow. It is actually sock yarn and it is knitting up wonderfully. I think I like the colorway better in the hank .
I am having fun knitting this up and can hardly wait to get it off the needles. I think I may take it to work and have people try to fold it to make the jacket before sewing the seams myself.
It will also be a surprise when I present it to as yet unknown baby. You see my "grandmother" clock is ticking. I don't yet have any daughter-in-laws, so naturally I don't have any grandchildren (I'm old fashioned)
I do however have the dream of having them someday and am preparing appropriately.
