Tips For Making Booties for Newborns
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 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.
