Surprise,

Surprise, Surprise!


The top jacket is the one pictured at the Detroit Metro Airport, now complete with horn buttons for the hunting baby.

The other two were requests from my mom for a set of twins. I put quite a bit of thought into how to make them sex-specific but not cliche, and similar but not identical. Most of the yarn is from my stash, as are the buttons. I struggled to mail these; I liked having them around and admiring them.

    I love how you used colour to re-invent these classics.
    Horn buttons! Too cute.
    Very cool.

    Not that's a lot of BSJs! They are awesome. I particularly love the twins versions. I'm all about baby things that aren't "baby" colors.
