Hope dashed

I was looking through a booklet of knitting patterns for babies. I don't actually know any babies but thought that as the garments are so small I may have a remote chance of finishing one.

Little bear looked over my shoulder. 'Can I have that please?' he asked, pointing at a knitted baby pirate costume.

I nearly did a dance around the room - little bear was actually being half way willing to wear something I knit. He won't wear a sweater, and neither will OH, and little bear is very dismissive of the thought of wearing anything his mum made. But he actually wanted something from a knitting pattern and I could do it, where were my needles!!!

Actually he wanted a pirate costume that wasn't knitted, thank you so much. I feel so deflated.
