A Retrospective, Part II

Baby Surprise Jacket just didn't work out for me.  Oh, sure, it looks great on her here, but note how short the sleeves are.  Because right up until this moment, the body was huge on her, and it just looked weird and uncomfortable.

I mean no disrespect to Elizabeth Zimmerman.  I swear.  The fault must be mine (and I think part of that must have to do with my yarn choice.  I guess?  I don't know.  I got gauge.)

Similarly, my beloved Surprise Bonnet is now frogged.  It was never worn.  I loved making this, though, and I think it's beautiful, so I might make it again for some other, presumably less hat-hating baby.  And I'd make it smaller.
