My grandson was the working model for these booties as every pair we bought for him would get kicked off or lost. Not these they stay on his feet and are adorable with the turn-down cuff which I tried not to make too bulky.

Newborn 3.50mm and use a 0-3 Months 4.00 mm hook
I used a Double knit yarn
Notes: At the beginning of Round 8. You WILL TURN your work for the cuff to start working the front post double crochet ribbing.
Sizes: I have provided 2 sizes of booties here because I found one when my grandson was born we found that by the time he had all his baby onesies on the booties being a bit bigger meant his feet weren’t all squashed in.
At the End of Round 3 heel to toes should measure
0–3 months us a 3.5mm hook Sole Length = 3.5″
3–6 months use a 4mm hook Sole Length = 4 ″

I love to add a little hat and create an easy baby gift set. These little sets have become so popular this last year due to many not being able to see their loved ones.
I have made neutral-colored sets for pregnancy announcements. for Grandparents who could not be there in person to tell. Such a sweet idea
