Notes

What does the fox say? … A-oo-oo-ooo, this pattern has way too much hand seaming, woo-oo-oo-ooo!

That being said, I think these booties are about the cutest things I’ve ever knit!

Eliminated most of the seaming by joining in the round on row 15 of the foot ribbing and using Magic Loop to finish toe. After picking up the stitches for the cuff, I knit it in the round using Magic Loop also (purled the 1st row of contrasting color).

Knit the ears directly to the body in the round using Magic Loop as follows:

  1. Picked up and knit 5 sts, then another 5 sts the row behind them
  2. Knit one round
  3. SSK, K1, K2tog, SSK, K1, K2tog
  4. Knit one round
  5. Sl1, K2tog, psso, Sl1, K2tog, psso
  6. Broke yarn and drew through remaining 2 sts

I miscounted by a row on the cuffs, so they are a little short.
