I love making girly bankets. I had 3 boys, and so far most of my friends and relatives have boys too, so I was excited to get a chance to make this one.
I think I would have to agree. There are more patterns for stuff for girls vs. boys. Although, as a mother of 3 boys, I think this applies in most things not just crochet or knit patterns. You'll note in most clothing stores the section for girls is larger, more creative, and has more variety than boys. Somebody should make a pattern book with stuff just for boys, and I mean stuff that's boyish and not just neutral or less feminine. I'd buy it. XD
lol. Yes. A friend of mine made blankets for my 2 oldest boys--I didn't know how to crochet then. Having something like that handmade was very special, and I appreciated it. This is my way of sharing that with others now.
