As an avid knitter, the news of a baby’s arrival in the family is always something to get excited about. I found this cute pattern for a baby jacket in one of my magazines (Simply Knitting, issue 48) and set to work, and a couple of weeks later it was done. (OK – 3 weeks to be honest – it took me a week to get around to sewing in all those ends!)
It was a fun knit, there was never time to get bored with a scalloped edging, garter stitch stripes, fair-isle snowflakes, a little bit of lace, cables, and also embroidery!

This is an heirloom sweater that I'm sure will see lots of love and playtime for many little ones! Beautifully done. (I am slowly going through your old posts because I just found you this year!)
