knitting pattern
Note : This pattern is now available on Ravelry.
I was traveling this weekend, and ended up spending alot of time in airports. This was actually good as it gave me time to do some backing up of my beloved powermac, which is old and, I’m afraid, getting ready to crash. I also used the time to finally write up a pattern I had promised months ago for the knit baby shoes I made last fall.
So here it is. You can click on the image above or the link in the sidebar. Please note that this is only the second pattern I have written for others to use and I haven’t had anyone test it. Let me know if you come across any problems or if it’s difficult to understand. I just wrote it like I knit it, so I’m sure it’s not exactly standard knit pattern language. This is also the first time I have put a downloadable file on my website, so let me know if you have problems with the download as well.
I used Rio de la Plata Yarn, which is a wonderful hand spun, kettle dyed, thick/thin yarn from Uruguay. You could also use Manos, or any other worsted weight yarn that’s just on the bulky side and has a thick/thin texture.
Now back to sewing -I am so behind! Hope you had a lovely weekend.

wow, martha, this is so cool. I can’t believe you’re giving it away!
on Monday, June 4th, 2007 at 4:49 pm:
These are just beautiful! I don’t even know any babies but I’m going to test drive them anyway (in Manos). Thank you so much!
on Monday, June 4th, 2007 at 4:52 pm:
Wow, I can’t believe you’re giving it away either. I’m going to start a pair of these asap since we know a new baby (born on Fri) and I don’t have a gift ready.
on Monday, June 4th, 2007 at 5:00 pm:
Is there anything you can’t due? I think I will give your pattern a try since I have gifts to make for three babies all arriving in November. Thanks!
on Monday, June 4th, 2007 at 7:18 pm:
yeah!! what absolute perfect timing. I love the pattern and can’t wait to try it out. if I could, i’d kiss you!
thanks so much for sharing, martha.

gorgeous baby ‘boots’, martha. lovely. too funky, really.

It’s a cute pattern, but I am actually having a lot of trouble understanding the “wrap yarn” steps. Maybe some illustrations would help?
on Wednesday, June 6th, 2007 at 1:23 pm:
how darling! and what a lovely lovely choice of yarn!
i always linger in the manos de uruguay shops here,
the scarves and skeins are so luscious… xox
on Wednesday, June 6th, 2007 at 7:42 pm:
I’ve off to check my stash for an appropriate yarn. Thanks for the gift!
Perfect timing - a good friend is en route to her midwife and we hope for quick results
on Wednesday, June 6th, 2007 at 10:18 pm:
Fantastic! I happen to have a skein of Manos handy and was hoping to use it up on something for the baby.. Thanks

Thanks so much for sharing the little sock-shoes pattern. Just what I need for my 4 week old newest granddaughter as the English winter finally seems to be setting in!
She will have little knitted shoes with a button strap as she gets a bit bigger - the health professional loved these on my other little grandchildren in their first year, as they allow the feet to flex and grow naturally!

Can I get your pattern? My baby has TINY feet and I would love to have her great aunt make these shoes for her. You can email the address I have provided…I have tried to access the pattern from your blog and I have had no luck.
on Wednesday, November 18th, 2009 at 10:48 pm:
hi! is there a chance that you can make your lovely pattern available again??
thank you!
on Saturday, January 2nd, 2010 at 12:50 pm:
Happy New Year! Is it possible to get this pattern? Thank you!
on Friday, February 12th, 2010 at 9:53 am:
I can’t access the pattern - there is no sidebar link and when I click on the image I get a message saying that I am “not authorized” to view the page. Could you email it to me or check/fix the link?
Thanks! these are super-cute and I really want to make a whole bunch of them this weekend.

I tried to get an access to this lovely pattern, but some reason I can’t - is it members only or otherwise restricted?

on Sunday, February 14th, 2010 at 12:20 am:
Can’t get access. What do I need to do? Pattern is from 2007. Is it too old to view any more?
on Sunday, February 14th, 2010 at 9:20 am:
I would like the pattern for these booties? Could you send it to me or tell me how to find it? Thanks!
on Sunday, February 14th, 2010 at 4:29 pm:
I would love to have this pattern, but I keep getting the “access denied” message. If you would e-mail it to me or tell me how to get to it, I would be very grateful. I’d like to make several pairs for a crisis pregnancy center in our area.
on Wednesday, February 17th, 2010 at 8:09 pm:
HI!
I would love to knit these up for a friend’s baby due very soon and my 1 year-old daughter, and I keep getting an “access denied” message.
I saw them on ravelry a few days ago and I can’t get them out of my mind–the design is perfection to me. I am agog with admiration at its elegant modernity. And I must must knit these perfect-in-every-way booties or else my life will be diminished that I never got to knit this design–the perfect booties for our times.
on Saturday, February 20th, 2010 at 1:58 pm:
The web site will not let me see the baby bootie pattern. Can you please send it to me at the above email address?
I think it is adorable, I would love to make some for my first grandchild due in July.
Thanks,
Ginger

I am sorry but I was on vacation, came back to lots of emails, & deleted yours by mistake. Could you please resend the directions for your cute booties? Thanks so much.
on Friday, March 5th, 2010 at 11:08 am:
I am unable to access the knitting pattern from the link on this page. Could you please send the directions for your cute booties?

Care2.com posted this link on a newsletter, but access to the pattern is denied. I love to knit booties as shower gifts and would like to give these a try. Please re-post the link!
on Sunday, March 7th, 2010 at 6:32 am:
Arrived here from Care2.com but seams I’m threading forbidden link (no spelling mistakes - trying to match language to craft).
Thank you for any free pattern.

I would also love to do these booties, but I’ve been denied access to the link.
Is there anything that can be done?
Thank you!.
on Tuesday, July 27th, 2010 at 10:32 am:
These booties look so cute and easy. Would love to give them a try but I have been denied access to the site. The pattern was listed in Care2 but the link was not available. Is there any way I can get the pattern for these adorable booties? Thanks, Katt
