If Ikea made knitting patterns

Can you tell what it is yet?



Fold flap A to meet tab B....




Sew up and add hood.





Elizabeth Zimmermann's Baby Surprise Jacket, for C&T's baby, N.

Made in Marble, so that it will be easy to wash and dry. I do like this yarn, but I did have a few ‘squeaky acrylic’ moments with this. Running back to the sanctuary of real wool.
I must admit, I got bored with all the garter stitch really quickly. When I made my first one of these, I was intrigued by the magic of how it would come together, but I think it’s out of my system now. Makes me wonder if I will ever be able to face tackling Pagode.

Love how you liken this sweater to an Ikea item. Right on point! One was enough for me.
