The pitter patter of tiny little feet

Well, actually we can hope that the little person I made these wont make much pitter patter for a while longer as he is only six weeks old.

I wanted to make something personal and useful when my friend A had her baby and remembered that I had seen a pattern for something that looked like easy baby booties. My only problem was that it was in English - a knitting language I’m really not familiar with. Not that I let that stop me! Oh no - I boldly knittet like I have never knitted before; and it was a long, long way into bootie A until it dawned on me that this was going to be far too big for a newborn baby and that the pattern looked seriously wierd.

So I frogged it. Then I recalculated.

And then it turned out that these booties are a breeze! I knitted them up in an evening whilest watching tv, and the little recipient loved them - especially the fact that they are cool, black and manly!

The pattern is from Bernat.com. It is a free pattern, but you have to sign ut to access it.
