Learn to make the amazing Baby Surprise Jacket (BSJ) by Elizabeth Zimmerman. This is a perfect project for the adventurous beginner.       

Elizabeth Zimmermann’s Baby Surprise Jacket has become near legendary since its conception in 1968, from the newsletter #21. The jacket is knitted back and forth in Garter stitch, then cleverly folded and completed by weaving the shoulder seams. Make for the baby in your life, or with a different gauge, can be made for children and adults too!
