Made from the preemie variation of Elizabeth Zimmermann's Baby Surprise Jacket, on 5.5 mm needles with recycled Colinette (a friend gave me a bit of an unfinished sweater that I unraveled and repainted).
The border is made with some Italian yarn called "ggh Colorado" (colour 11, batch 919) that makes a really light yet dense fabric in garter stitch.
Instead of the usual buttonholes, I've crocheted loops on one side.
There was just enough yarn of both types ... I have less than a yard left of each!
