Easy Vintage Crochet Baby Booties A FREE Pattern

VERY Quick EASY Classic Baby Bootie Crochet Pattern. I use this baby shoe crochet pattern Time and Time again as it really is one of the easiest crochet baby booties patterns EVER.

These booties are delightfully quick and easy to whip up and can be made to suit boys or girls.

If for a newborn gift I usually just leave the ribbon color until I know for sure what mum has delivered.

I do love these little shoes as they are also ideal for a Christening as they keep the baby’s feet cozy and can be tied with the ribbon to make sure they are not kicked off.

I am mostly requested to make these crochet baby booties as part of a newborn crochet baby set or they are sometimes used as a pregnancy reveal order, for giving to grandparents to announce a pregnancy.

I Just Love them being crocheted in a lovely white Yarn.  However, The simplicity of the pattern also helps you to be very creative with your colorings and set finishings.

The baby booties are just perfect for the newborn baby and can be added to any crochet baby hat pattern to make an adorable newborn baby crochet set.

TO Crochet a  Full baby set I would recommend using the Easy 0-3 months Baby cardigan made in Double crochet and using Double knit yarn and the Newborn baby hat Pattern to make a lovely matching set.
