My "baby surprise jacket" is progressing... The name suggests that the shape that is being knit as one follows instructions will surprisingly turn into a baby sweater - knit all in one piece.
I have been knitting along, anticipating that the front will look more or less like this...
But the sweater takes a new turn as I switch to white yarn, having run out of the green. I'm now wondering if I have unknowingly been knitting the sweater upside down! What I thought was the front may now turn out to be the sleeves!
As I near the end, I'm a little confused... I'm also preparing to be surprised!
Made of three different types of yarn from my mother's "stash," the jacket may look nicer than I thought at first...
I'll be delighted if it ends up being a useful garment for my granddaughter or some other child.
The sweater is really looking pretty. I like it. Mary
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary! Once I turned it around the right way, I liked it a lot more, too. I guess that's the surprise!
