FO: Baby Surprise Jacket

One of my favourite finished objects of late, the Baby Surprise Jacket. Love this thing. My intention was to make this so that the wee one can wear it to her daddy’s congregation and I wasn’t too sure if the sleeves would still be long enough by then so I lengthened the sleeves, but knit them with two less stitches to form mini cuffs. I think it’s cute.

I really love the way the yarn works up in this pattern. I can really see myself doing another in some handspun.
