I like cute things for babies… I don’t like seaming, sewing, or weaving in ends. I’ll go to an inordinate amount of trouble to avoid it, in fact. Like designing my own stuff…. usually I do this by just making things up as I go along, but with booties you kind of want the second one to match the first, so I had to write some things down. This is good news for you, cause it resulted in this pattern!
