Another two designs from Elizabeth Zimmermann, the Baby Surprise Jacket and February Longies (from the Knitter’s Almanac). Usually I don’t choose varigated colors like this, but the yarn was so soft and squishy I was temporarily blinded. I ran out of the yarn on the longies and the store didn’t have any of the same dyelot, so I chose a pink varigation that matched the green of the blue/purple varigation, and used them in stripes on the legs and straight pink on the feet. The feet turned out really huge, but I think she’ll grow into them.
