The Bookish Girl

I Will Knit Them!

Baby keeps losing her hats. She wears them out and they get stuck in a pocket, purse, diaper bag only to be found days later after a heated search of the premises. I have a plan to combat this, thereby eliminating the frantic search.

Knit more hats.

Yarn: Artyarns supermerino

Colorway: 154

Needles: US size 6 Denise Interchangeables

Gauge: 21 sts/4 in, 29 rows/in (knit in the round, unblocked)

Pattern: Made up, CO 60 sts. Still have to add some corkscrew thingies at the top.

Sophia wants to know if ladybug booties take away from her menacing super powers as baby super girl? Maybe she could save the world with cuteness?!

    No way. The booties totally up the menacing, super cuteness quotient. Look at how chubby her cheeks are getting! ; )

    I think the ladybug booties add a special “undercover” aspect to the costume ;-)

    Maybe with her baby x-ray vision, she can find the hats that much faster for you. Too cute in the booties!

    Au Contraire, dear Sophia; the ladybugs bring out a certain “I can pull off anything” attitude. (Like a man who can carry or hold a purse – he earns respect. The booties challenge someone to say something cute – at which point you can wow them with additional cuteness, or, rather, stare them down. You’ll have them in the palm of your hand (if you don’t already) in no time.)

    Good lord. There are some pictures that make you stop and have to pat your womb back in place, and that’s one of them. She is gorgeous!

    I would say the booties add to the surprise/undercover nature of her super powers. Although saving the world with cuteness is certainly a possibility!

    Love the booties! I guess we should call them “kicking ***” booties since after all she IS a superhero. (Can they be made in adult size?)

    They definitely add to her powers. “Look, ladybug booties!” Villain: “Wha–?? Oh, how cute!” POW! ZIFF! BAM! Baby Super Girl saves the day again.

    Well, I can only add my voice – doh, of course they add to her superpowers. Cuteness slays, you know.

    Look at that Supergirl!
    Isn’t it amazing how baby items can disappear? And you can’t blame them at all. That’s a shame.
