Default I'm looking for a green and white shirt!!!

I am looking for a Kelly green and white striped turtleneck or long sleeved shirt size Adult M ... also, some green and white striped socks. I've checked at Mooseburgers, Betty Cash, ebay, Shopgoodwill, and Barbi's. Actually, it doesn't even have to be long sleeved. Any other suggestions, or does someone have one to sell? This is for my grandson's St. Patrick's Day costume for our parade.

Have you thought about a solid turtleneck and then add your own stripes? With your talents you ought to be able to pull something like that off a lot easier that I could.

Actually, since the first posting of this thread, my daughter told me they're not coming up (from Indy) so I don't need to worry about the shirt anymore. I have until next year.

Now all I have to do is concentrate on my costume and my granddaughter's, and figure out how to turn a cute little puppy into a green one without harming him.

Thanks for the suggestions about the green and white shirt everyone ... I will have a year to look for one now!!

For the puppy you could use either the colored hairspray like the kids use for school spirit pep rallies or the "Fantasy F/X" water based body and hair paint from Mehron. The only problem would be if it started to rain...

If you're wanting to paint the puppy really well, you'll need to sand between coats...

I was thinking of bathing him in green jello.

Shoot! All the good answers are gone.
I was thinking that a green and white Rugby Shirt might catch your fancy. Check sporting goods supplies during the course of next year just for the heck of it. I would gladly donate my old uniform but I think it could qualify as a picture of permanent defeat.
I like your idea of jello (just for the heck of it) can't hurt the critter, and you might be able to display him at a salad bar somewhere...
Can you dye him like an easter egg?
I better STOP!
