Baby Surprise Jacket

Pattern: Baby Surprise Jacket by Elizabeth Zimmermann
Needle: US 1½ / 2.5 mm
Yarn: Leftover Sock Yarn - Fingering Weight
Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock Multi - Flamigo Stripes
Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sock Solid - Pink Blossom
Size: Newborn

This is a very interesting pattern and very fun to knit. I used leftover sock yarn so the only thing I had to buy was the little flower buttons. My DH was even impressed with the whole process and suggested that I knit one up to hand on the wall...isn't that sweet? I plan to make several more of these cute little sweaters.

That looks fantastic!!! What size did it knit up to be? (in the chest I mean) I need to find a combo to make for a 12-18 month old
