Suprise Baby Jacket

Last week I bought yarn (Sensations Cuddle from Jo-Ann's) and began a baby sweater for a coworker. I'm using the Surprise Baby Jacket pattern by Elizabeth Zimmerman. I made one before and they're fun.  I got a lot done while waiting for hubby to get some followup tests at the doctor on Monday.  It's all garter stitch so it's pretty quick.

Many thanks to World Embroideries for suggesting the crochet cast on. I hadn't used it for a bit but it was perfect for this.  Part of the cast on edge becomes the bottom edge of the sleeve.
