According to my Mum NOBODY in their right mind would allow their child to wear THIS

I would. I like it and I know DD would! I asked my Mum to make it and she actually laughed out loud! Shock

She said "Who on earth would let their child walk about in THAT!?"

Well actually me! I would! I know it's a bit "dressing up box" but why can't a 5 year old have some fun with her wardrobe? Mum takes ages to knit things as she puts them down a lot....so it would be done for Autumn I expect. She has point blank refused....I told her I'd have to ask MIL then as MIL would knit me a wedding dress if I asked her to though she's not as good as Mum...she will do it whatever she thinks of it.

Anyway...Mum trusts you lot...if I tell her you all say it's ok, then she might do it. Grin So...be honest...DD would like it and she can skip to the shops/park in it with jeans and boots on.

Yes? Or no?

It's adorable. My DD would love it.

I love it really love it.

Taffeta · 29/05/2013 21:46

I want one for me DD. DD (6) would LOVE it.

schooldidi · 29/05/2013 21:46

I think it's brilliant. I want one and I'm 34! I actually think I'm going to get mil to knit this for dd2 (age 3).

If she was 12 then no, but at 5 of course!

williaminajetfighter · 29/05/2013 21:46

If you can't wear it at 5 when can you wear it? Shamazing.

Fairylea · 29/05/2013 21:46

Love it!

Taffeta · 29/05/2013 21:46

ROFL curiosity - no wonder she's reticent!

PourquoiPas · 29/05/2013 21:46

I love it. I would completely let my DD wear it (heck I would let DS wear it it too!)

redwellybluewelly · 29/05/2013 21:47

LOVE IT!

And in fact had already pinned it a few weeks ago!

BerryMojito · 29/05/2013 21:47

Yes, absolutely! Very cute. Mine would probably wear it and she's 18 Grin!

SanityClause · 29/05/2013 21:47

Very cute!

And I would really like one of those knitted wedding dresses your MIL does, as well.

Loulybelle · 29/05/2013 21:47

Awwwwwww, my DD(5) would love that....

SquirtedPerfumeUpNoseInBoots · 29/05/2013 21:48

Oh yes! I'll have one too please.

TheChaoGoesMu · 29/05/2013 21:48

Yep I would. Its fab.

StuntGirl · 29/05/2013 21:48

I love it. I am biased though as I am having my friend make me a cape too. I dislike coats but need something to wrap up in when the weathers cold, so a cape it is!

YesIamYourSisterInLaw · 29/05/2013 21:48

Haha at curiosity.

Thesebootsweremadeforwalking · 29/05/2013 21:48

Love it! (Suspect my DS would too!)

KatyMac · 29/05/2013 21:49

My DD would love it (in red or purple I think or possibly another strong colour like turquoise or emerald)....she is 15!

TheChaoGoesMu · 29/05/2013 21:49

Can we put orders in for one? I have cash Grin

khaleesidragon · 29/05/2013 21:50

I love it. I m now hoping I'm having a girl purely for this cape. I want one for myself too.
