Too Cute!

I made these for my brother and his wife who are expecting their first baby.  His favorite color has always been orange, and I think that these would fit either sex.  They look like little moon boots to me.  I had to wait and post these until they received them, in the off chance that they would see them on this site.  Made of Baby Ull, my favorite baby clothing yarn.  The pattern is Christine’s Stay-On Baby Booties, a pattern submitted by a 90 year old many years ago as her favorite baby bootie pattern.  I will be anxious to hear if they really fit well.  I had forgotten how tiny baby feet are.  I did compare them to a pair of Sofia’s knitted booties, and they were right on target.  I wish that I had had more time to knit when my own kids were babies and I could have used these things.
