Notes

Started Monday 7th January - a knitalong with knitbabysurprise group on Yahoo - this is a stocking stitch version of the Classic Baby Surprise Jacket by E Zimmermann - adapted by James Davis (Panda Man) Basic instruction on the stocking stitch method can be seen here:

When it is a bit further along I shall take some pictures of my progess.

Finished - after a bit of frogging (because I did a ribbed band and it didn’t look right) on Wed 23 Jan - I did leave it for a few days because I started something else!!!

Finally finished and sewed up this little jacket on February 11th.

Hmmm - I quite liked it in stocking stitch - next time I shan’t use a fluffy yarn.

But I still prefer the garter stitch one!
