Knitted Baby Booties!!!

We can all agree that miniature things are adoooooorable. Think ferocious dog, then think snugly puppy! Think tea pot, then a tiny tea pot charm on a necklace. Picture a book, then a mini journal for your mini thoughts. See -- this game works for anything. Let's continue: Imagine a semi truck hauling past you on the highway, as opposed to a matchbox car. Well - it works for most things.

The point is, no matter what - baby knitwear is a major competitor for the cutest thing ever. And baby booties are on the top fo my list because they can't be anything BUT adorable.

So, I was overjoyed when a friend of mine said, "Can you make baby booties??" Instead of replying, "Well, let's see. I've never made a pair before." I just said, "Of course." We left North Carolina for Washington, D.C. and I knitted busily during the drive. When we arrived the booties were finished and tied with the I-cord bow. I sat them on the dashboard as we drove into the city and "awww....they were so CUTE!!"

Better yet, I met the baby as well!

Here is the sweetie with his papa. Little does he know his feet are going to be very warm and snug on the trip home back to Istanbul.
