A classic baby bootie pattern in a detailed, easy to follow photo & video tutorial.
The sock is worked in the round without seams, top down, with a quick three needle bind off at the heel. A longer fold-over ribbing ensures that the booties stay on.
The pattern includes a detailed photo & video tutorial making this project suitable for both experienced and novice knitters alike. A truly addictive pattern that leaves you wanting to make more.
