Baby Bootie Patterns
Crochet baby booties or socks are the perfect handmade gift. Here you’ll find beautiful, quick, and easy patterns suitable for beginners. There are also more elaborate crochet bootie patterns for experienced crocheters.
Tips for making crochet baby booties
If you’re making booties to fit a newborn and the pattern is working up large there are some things you can try to make them smaller without altering the pattern details. Try using a smaller crochet hook, or use a lighter-weight yarn, e.g., if the pattern specifies Aran try using DK.
Best Yarn to use for Baby Booties
Choose a soft and easily washable yarn for your crochet baby booties. They only use such a small amount of yarn that it’s affordable to buy something special. They are also the perfect project to use up little bits of yarn you may have left over from other projects.
