1st Attempt: Baby Booties


Last or what could've been a couple of weeks ago already, I was able to make one really nice crocheted mittens for the princess using a size-8 local Cannon thread. Immediately after seeing the mittens done, I wanted to do a pair of booties that'll match the cute mittens -- still using the locally available thread.

But it didn't turn out as easy as I have imagined it to be for several reasons: 1. I got frustrated trying to find a non-complex bootie pattern that will come out just fine as the mittens. 2. I got confused several times with the pattern directions and 3. it'-just-not-as-easy-as-I-thought-it-would-be.

But a determined mom as I was, I kept telling myself I have to keep looking, I will come up with one! So with that in mind I kept looking-downloading patterns, trying-crocheting and undoing what I've done... Until finally, I was able to come up with a simple but cute booties that can match the mittens I have done!

The said pair of booties is actually now done... I won't be able to post the picture with this blog though because I feel a little dizzy-lazy-tired to do that right now. Must be due to all the walking I've done this afternoon. But hopefully, you'll see the photo posted here by tomorrow or the day after that (*crosses-fingers*).

And now that I am done with my 1st mittens-booties pair, I am hoping that I'd still be able to come up with at least another pair of booties-mittens, this time using the Indonesia yarn given to me by my friend Lorie... before the princess is born.

As promised, here's a photo of my 1st crocheted booties attempt =)
