Two baby surprise jackets

When I first started knitting I came across "Knitting Without Tears". I knew right away that this was the kind of knitting I wanted to do. But at the time, being a complete beginner, I couldn't make heads or tails of it. So almost two years later, here are my first EZ creations, two baby suprise jackets.

The first one uses blue, purple, navy Lamb's Pride wool. The second uses natural undyed yarns - dark grey from Corriedale sheep, Pit River Wool, CA, and natural white color from Coopworth lambs, Coburn Creek Farm and Pottery, WV.

I sent both to "afghans for Afghans" (http://www.afghansforafghans.org/). They collect hand knitted/crocheted items for people in war-torn (and cold) Afghanistan. I enjoy reading zimmermania - lots of good inspiration here.
