aka Elizabeth Zimmerman's Baby Surprise Jacket.
I am continually amazed when this:
With a fold or two:
becomes this:
Details: Three Irish Girls Adorn Sock Yarn (80% merino/20% nylon; machine washable). Custom dyed colorways: Circuitry and Motherboard. Sz 5 (3.75mm) circular needles.
This yarn has provided the world with: a pair of
socks; a hat:

The Chase or Runner's Hat

and now this sweater. I still have most of the second skein of both colors left so I think this baby will be receiving a few more handknit items.
The sweater is sewn up (just two seams at the shoulders) and I still need to find some buttons to finish it off. Fortunately the intended recipient isn't due to arrive until March 2014 so I have a bit of time to complete my search.

I like Elizabeth Zimmerman. My neighbor who is teaching me to knit loaned me two of her books. Such delightful, down to earth writing.
Love that color!
