I knit this little sweater as a baby gift for a friend from the infamous Baby Surprise Jacket pattern designed by Elizabeth Zimmermann. I found the pattern in her book, The Opinionated Knitter. The sweater was knit with a 100% Merino superwash wool from Fleece Artist in Nova Scotia, purchased from Beehive Wool Shop in Victoria, BC . The buttons are from my mom's collection. The suggested needle size for the yarn was 3mm, but I used a needle size of 4.5mm to give the sweater a looser knit to make it an airy, yet warm sweater, hopefully perfect for a fall day in Saskatoon!
