Newborn & Premmie Booties and Hat Set
The link will take you to the newborn set, the premmie size can be found here: https://daisyandstorm.com/2019/04/23/quick-and-easy-premm...
This baby booties and hat set is super quick to make and (as is my current theme) great for stash busting! They’re all knitted flat and then seamed. The booties also have ribbons to keep them on to squirmy little feet. This set can be made to match my free one piece newborn cardigan knitting pattern, so all together could make a great set as a gift or for charity.
The baby booties were inspired by a pair my great-grandmother’s friend made for my first son many years ago. I was just learning to knit at the time and was totally intrigued with how they were put together. I’ve never found the exact pattern so I decided to have a go at making them myself. Then, with lots of left over wool, I thought it would be wonderful to have a matching hat. My set is off to charity, but feel free to use this pattern to make baby sets for whatever you like – friends, grandchildren, or to sell. I am on a mission to make and donate as much as possible to charity this year, so it would be awesome if you felt like making one for charity too!
Size & Materials
DK/Light Worsted Weight yarn and 4 mm needles. Of course you could make this with different sized yarn (worsted weight would be a good option) however this will change the size. Worsted weight would make a larger hat and booties (or you could use smaller – 3.5 mm – needles).
