Baby Moccasin Booties Pattern

March 3, 2012 by Terrye

Baby booties are not only adorable to look at, but they are also a functional and practical gift for new parents. Not only do they keep little toes warm and protected, but they are also easy to put on and take off, making them a convenient option for busy parents. One of the great things about baby booties is that there are so many different patterns available, from simple and classic designs to more complex and intricate patterns that are perfect for experienced knitters.

One unique and fun pattern to try is the Purl Bees’ free Baby Moccasin pattern. This pattern not only teaches you how to knit in the round, but it also includes a tutorial on the duplicate stitch, a technique that allows you to add a pop of color or design to your finished project. The pattern is easy to follow and includes detailed instructions and step-by-step photos to guide you through the process.

Whether you’re a seasoned knitter or a beginner, this pattern is perfect for practicing and mastering new techniques. The end result is a beautiful and functional pair of baby moccasins that will be cherished by any new parent. So grab your needles and yarn and give this pattern a try – you’ll be surprised at how easy and fun it is to make your own baby booties!

Embellish Your Knit Dishcloth with Flowers

One great thing to knit when the weather is warm (or honestly any other time) is dishcloths and washcloths. They are fun and easy projects and a great way to play with new skills. Pretty washcloths make cleaning a tiny bit more fun, and they’re great to have on hand as a quick addition to a store-bought gift. 

The Daisy Delight Dishcloth from Yarnspirations is a fun one for using leftover bits of green in your cotton yarn stash. What looks like the bottom in the picture is actually the left side as you knit it, and each little color section is worked with its own ball of yarn, intarsia style. 

That’s a little fiddly for a washcloth, but the effect is cute, and it’s a simple way to learn the basics of intarsia knitting (as well as reading a chart) if you don’t already have those skills. 

One the knitting is done, you add the flowers with a bit of lazy daisy embroidery, which is really easy to do even if you’re not that into embroidery. You could also potentially add flowers in duplicate stitch if you’d rather. 

This may be the most work you’ve put into a dishcloth, but isn’t it adorable? It would be fun to use as a hand towel through the spring and summer, and if you already have some leftover green yarn from other projects it should be pretty easy to do. 

You could also take this same concept and make it different colors. All dark green stems with stars on top might be reminiscent of Christmas trees, or brown with daisy stitch on top in different colors could be trees in the fall. 

However you stitch it, this looks like a fun little project for knitters who are comfortable with intarsia and reading charts or who are ready to try those skills. 

You can grab the free pattern from Yarnspirations.
