I’ve finally cast on for the infamous Baby Surprise Jacket.

Never having been one to embrace the latest craze, I’ve resisted thus far, although the pattern has been in my possession for over a year.

The hundreds of BSJ’s on Ravelry as well as the sheer quirkiness of the pattern has finally called my name. And yes, I’m thoroughly enjoying knitting this project.  Like everyone else, I’m anxious to see how it all comes together in the end.

I’m knitting with Cascade Merino yarn which is wonderfully soft with lots of stitch definition.

Future plans include using some of my handspun yarn for a Baby Surprise as well as the vibrant purple and green Cascade Merino, languishing in my stash.
