Bernat Baby Coordinates has both a "pop your eyes" pink, and a very nice pastel pink. Wal-Mart and Joann's carry it for sure.

And see, I would like some more vibrant colours and can only find pastels. We are at the whim of the shop owners and managers, I am afraid.

I like the softness and luster of baby yarn, but sometimes want to use it for adult projects. It's hard to find "fingering" weight yarn here unless it is baby, but then the colour selection is limited.

Here's another Bernat yarn which has a pink marl color which you might like.

Walmart carries baby colors

But not in the baby/fingering yarn. And their pinks in sport and worsted are deeper than I want. I want a very pale pink.

Bernat Baby Coordinates is sport weight but they have a very pale pink that I have used - I don't like the deeper pink either for a baby. Consider using a light peach or lavendar as another "girlie" option

I'm making an afghan with Red Heart Soft Baby. I picked it because the pink was so pale, but it really seems to split a lot. It's really slowing me up.
