And Now, an Almost-Finished Object

JLK, if you want a surprise, don't look further!

Please enjoy the pretty flowers...

All right, everyone ready to see the baby sweater?

Here it is!


What, you don't see it? :) Just kidding! I mean, it really is a baby sweater, but I haven't seamed it yet, and that's the joke of this pattern. Elizabeth Zimmermann's Baby Surprise Jacket has been described, pre-seaming, as resembling a manta ray, and I think I see it, don't you?

But grab it by the shoulders (once you figure out where they are), and voila:


Now we need buttons. And I have plenty of yarn left, so I'm thinking a matching hat and perhaps booties, too.

Baby knitting is so fun.... happy sigh.
