I've decided that I need a new project to get the whole summer knitting thing started. When most people think of summer knitting, cotton, linen and hemp spring to mind.
I think wool. Light colored wool, but wool nonetheless.
I had two almost full skeins of Lambs Pride in "Oatmeal", a copy of the Oppionated Knitter and a friend who's getting fatter by the day. Enter the Baby Surprise Jacket:
For some reason, I thought I could cast on and knit a baby sweater in, like, twenty minutes. Not so much. But hey, it's garter stitch, and I just happen to think that garter stitch is super fun.
And look at the wrong side decreases!
I'm off to the ATL this weekend and I'm totally procuring more yarn I won't knit for about three years. Wish me luck

Love the BSj--EZ will do you right every damn time. I'm also doing what you're doing this weekend--going to another city (Mpls.) and likely procuring yarn I don't need. Safe travels:)
bsj's are like magic. without the ponytails and blazers.
Looks gorgeous! The decreases are awesome - I'm jealous!
