Twisties
Twisties are cute little baby booties with twisted stitches twining up the outside of the cuff. The tiny twists on these remind me of my favourite Australian snack – also Twisties! Bet you can’t knit just one pair …
The booties are knitted in the round, starting like a toe-up sock. They also have an inside ribbed cuff that helps them stay snugly on busy baby feet. Twisties booties make perfect new baby, shower, birthday, or holiday gifts.
