A quick knit because I needed them for a baby shower. This was my first time using very small needles, and my first time making booties at all. They turned out good, even though I accidentally modified the pattern slightly!

took measurements 11/1. completed back 11/5. completed front 11/14. complete sleeves 11/21. completed seaming 11/22. completed cowl 11/26. wove in ends 11/28. adjustments: added 1” of length. moved waist shaping up by 1”. added stitches for the ribbing to be in correct multiples – decreased out mid-armhole shaping on the back. alternating skeins throughout. knit…
gauge is 6 st/in, between fingering and DK on needles in between those as well. Casting on the fingering size 12mo and it will just be slightly big so she can wear it longer probably doing short sleeves.
Cast on like I was doing a Tier of Ruffles and then changed it as I’ve gone along. Seems like it will turn into a boat-neck shape with a ribbon, and then float out from there with increases. Found Ribbon in my stash and turned down the edge to sew the ribbon inside. Blocking nicely.
