We got out all of my older son’s winter clothes from when he was two-ish, filtered out anything that had a truck on it, and were left with plenty of winter clothes for my daughter.
When we got out the winter coat I thought that we could pull it off, all we needed was to make the light blue coat just a bit more girly. So what I did was make a very simple crochet flower using this pattern.
I hand sewed the flower over the monkey-robot-something applique, and now I hope I won’t get too many “Aww, what a cute boy” remarks…
Just in case, I’m putting the money we saved aside for a psychologist when she grows up (all I ever wore were hand-me-downs from my brother!)…
OMG I am soooo happy I found your blog 🙂 My 2 yr old daughter fell in love with my nephews blue varsity coat lol… I was racking my brain trying to think of a way to make it at least a little girly, since she doesn’t have much hair she’s confused for a boy if not in pink and even then sometimes lol… BUT THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
