Baby Booties Knitting Pattern, Knit Flat Ribbed Baby Shoes, Newborn to 12 Months, DK Yarn, Straight Needles

Create a beautiful pair of classic baby booties with this easy-to-follow knit-flat knitting pattern from MK Crafts UK.

The booties are worked in soft DK yarn using 4 mm straight knitting needles, making them ideal for knitters who prefer not to use double-pointed or circular needles. The design features a comfortable K1/P1 ribbed cuff, a cosy garter-stitch foot and a gently shaped rounded toe. Once knitted, each bootie is finished with a simple centre-sole and back seam.

The pattern includes four baby sizes:

• 0–3 months – approximately 9 cm sole length
• 3–6 months – approximately 10 cm sole length
• 6–9 months – approximately 11 cm sole length
• 9–12 months – approximately 12 cm sole length

Age ranges are approximate, so choosing the size by the required finished sole length is recommended whenever possible.

Skill level: Intermediate

You will need:

• DK yarn – allow one 50 g ball
• 4 mm straight knitting needles
• Two stitch holders or lengths of waste yarn
• Tapestry needle for sewing

The pattern contains clearly written, row-by-row instructions for every size, including the ribbed cuff, divided instep, picked-up stitches, foot shaping, sole decreases and making-up guidance.

These timeless knitted booties make a lovely handmade gift for a new baby, baby shower, christening or first photograph. They can be knitted in traditional white or cream, soft pastels or any colour chosen to coordinate with your other baby knits.
