2-needle Baby Booties
Lion Brand® Watercolors
GAUGE: 16 sts + 24 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] in Garter Stitch (knit every
row). BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.
STITCH EXPLANATION: | M1 (make 1) An increase worked by lifting horizontal thread lying between needles and placing it onto left needle. Work this new stitch through the back loop.

| 2-needle Baby Booties Reviewed by Dawn Walton on 2009-09-24 |

| I couldn't find the watercolor yarn, so bought some that I thought would work, but ended up with a bootie for a 2-yr old. Bought some new yarn... just some typical thin baby yarn... the next bootie was great for a premie, but not the nearly-9-lb newborn I was trying to get it done for, so I use size 6 needles and that gave the perfect amount of extra stretch. I've finished the premie size pair now and doing another pair of those as a friend's sister just had twins about 8 weeks early. This was also my first attempt at booties and this is a great pattern! Cute, but easy!
