I share the same love of knitting for babies
and this particular pattern.
I love knowing the pattern by heart... it's
like having a favorite dish to make. The book
didn't come out until my children were older,
but I have made countless pairs and have
always gotten great feedback about how they
stay on.
Sometimes I stray and try out other patterns
but I always come back to this one. Besides
it's fun to have a "signature
gift".
The book came out the year after Calvin was
born, so both Ezra and Adelaide each had a
pair of these, and they most definitely DO
stay on so well. It really is the best bootie
pattern, I think. I've seen some of your
beauties too. ;)
this is just beautiful. i am expecting baby
#2 & would love to make some booties like
this. where can i find a pattern? i am having
a hard time finding a good one with ties on
them like that.
