Baby Surprise Jacket DVD by Elizabeth Zimmermann

Meg Swansen’s revisits Elizabeth Zimmermann’s Baby Surprise Jacket. First introduced in a 1968 Wool Gathering, this pattern has gained popularity ever since. Meg takes you step-by-step through the entire jacket. Knit entirely in garter stitch with simple increases and decreases, you will be amazed when it is time to sew up the only two seams. A great project to use up any scrap yarn and allow yourself to be as creative as possible with color. Your Cost: $18.00
