The Simeon baby shoe is knitted version of a baby trainer with a cute ribbed cuff and garter stitch side detail. They’re a perfect knit to whip up over a weekend. Part of my stay-on shoe range, baby can kick, crawl, pull and they’ll still have warm little toes! They are knit in the round with no seams and the finishing is minimal.
