Good morning all,
I'm sitting in my mismatched pj's this morning thinking how funny/strange and great us humans are!
I recently put up a photo on my facebook crochet page https://www.facebook.com/LilybelleCreationsIreland) of a boobie beanie I made for a customer. In case you haven't seen or heard of the infamous boobie beanie, it is a hat that is made to add a giggle and a bit of confidence to breast feeding and is worn on the babies head (not your own) while nursing your infant. Well anyhow when I popped up a photo of the said beanie, it created a bit of a stir, most people loved it but some were offended to my gigantic surprise. This was not my intention at all, I am not that radical :)
I make these beanies to show my support for breastfeeding Mums and also to promote breast cancer awareness which is a cause very close to my heart as I lost my own Mum to it when she was just 47.
I think women are amazing and Mums are outstanding. I think for anyone to say that Boobie beanies are sad fashion should take a look at themselves (and maybe do a breast check too!)

It makes me sad personally to say that in this decade people still have a problem with the breast being exposed in order for one to feed their infant.
I recently read an article on the boobie beanie and they are quoted as saying "Boobie beanies are for Mums who thrive on shock value"
Oh come on....that's not the way I see it at all. I see a confident beautiful woman feeding her infant and having a giggle...now where is the harm in that :)
Have a great day
Love Lilybelle x
