Saturday night was spent watching movies with my other half and knitting my first pair of booties which I hope to sell! The pattern was a little difficult to me as it was written differently to previous patterns I worked with and although it stated that a circular needle could be used to knit in the round...it could not!!! The boot was far too tiny..so I used double pointed needles (DPNs) instead! I have to say I am very pleased with the outcome!! I have posted some pictures of these adorable little new born baby booties below!
Knitted with worsted weight cream wool, they have a seed/moss stitch sole, garter stitch edge, stocking stitch insole and a rib stitch cuff. My favorite is the seed stitch sole as I love this stitch. It is very pretty and almost resembles the sole of shop bought booties as it has a bobbled look.
These booties can be purchased by:
1. Contacting me directly on my blog or facebook page
or
2. My Etsy Shop - http://www.etsy.com/shop/HelenaAgCniotail

Happy Knitting and Crafting
