To everyone who has been asking for this baby bootie/shoes pattern; It’s here at last.
Not only are these cute, colourful baby booties/shoes (size 0 to 3 mths) one of my best sellers at the local Landsborough Market which I attend every 2nd & 4th Saturday of the month, people also constantly ask for the pattern.
The pattern, however, was in my head & on a scrappy bit of paper. I really had to get on & apply myself to the task & get it done.
Turns out, it’s a good beginners pattern & a quickie for the more experienced & includes:~ written pattern & chart ~ both UK & US terminology~ clear photos & stitch instructions
I mostly use 8 ply 100% cotton for these baby booties/shoes but the pattern works just a well with wool & acrylic yarn. It’s great that we have such an array of bright colourful yarns to choose from these days &, that baby apparel is no longer limited to soft pascals.
I use a 3.50 (US:E) hook but going up a size will result in a slight larger bootie/shoe. So experiment to find what suits you best.
This is a basic pattern that allows for experimentation with colours, yarn, hooks & embellishments so, go on, have fun with this one.
The Basic Baby Bootie/shoe pattern is available for purchase here in my online shop.
