This is why I avoid making any gendered statements where babies are concerned--the ones all in pink frillies are easy, but the rest are HARD. =D That sweater pattern is absolutely adorable. Heh.

A fellow walked up to me and commented, "What a cute baby!" Of course, I thanked him and then he said, "Is it a boy or a girl?" sigh I soooo wanted to say, it's a boy, but we want him to be in touch with his feminine side. But I just said, "She's a girl."

I soooo wanted to say, it’s a boy, but we want him to be in touch with his feminine side. But I just said, “She’s a girl.”

What are you going to do?

Love the pattern and the colours but the thought of taking the scissors to knitting, scary. I hope you do get time to finish it, I want to know what happens.
