I had so much fun participating in Kara’s knitting challenge from last week. I skyped her after reading it, guessing it was baby booties. And then I texted her asking if she would give me the seaming instructions.
It’s nice to have connections, I tell ya’.
They were adorable, quick, and really fun to make. They are tiny little things- (Photos are taken in Nora’s mini little hands) – so for a newborn, I think I will be increasing the pattern a bit to fit a ‘real’ baby. Kara needed a whole BUNCH of them to be made as key chain favors for her dear friend’s baby shower, so I pitched in a little bit and made a few more. My Mom was a huge help and made most of them for the shower. I have a little niece or nephew arriving any minute, (eep!) so I will be knitting up four more- in gender-appropriate colors, just in case.
They are super simple, and would be a great pattern for a new knitter to start with! Nora is already planning on figuring out how to make a set with me. You can view the seaming instructions on Kara’s reveal post today, and her original knitting instructions here.

Thanks so much for all your help making these cute booties for our shower. They were adorable, and I appreciate all your hard work creating so many of these! Homemade pieces are always the best, good luck with your newborn sized ones!
