Baby Surprise Jackets

I've been knitting Baby Surprise Jackets, so named because the jacket is knit in all one piece and then Surprise! folded like origami to form a jacket. I used some sock yarn that made very ugly wide stripes when knit up into socks; I think it looks better paired with a solid yarn and knit into these jackets! I modified the pattern a bit to use the buttons I had on hand. Now to figure out what to do with them.
