When C was little, she wore a lot of gender-neutral clothing. We are active girls and who knew if she would have little sister or brother.
Turns out we're a family with just girls.
She showed a strong preference for blue before she could even say it improperly.
Her little sister on the other hand has always strongly preferred purple.
What's a mum to do with a slew of hand-me-down blue?
Yes, you can even dye sneakers.
Using basic Purple liquid RIT dye, following the instructions on the package (add 1c salt for cotton fabrics) I did a purple dye load.
The slightly different socks are all purple now.
So happy for an easy solution to a girl who doesn't want the blues. And especially grateful that the blue girl is first.
