Christmas Booties





I wanted to knit booties in red and white color for Christmas for my son and so came up with this design. This booties are pretty much like the Debbie Bliss booties design except that I added different color combination and slight modification in the making.

Have fun knitting!!!

My First Christmas Stockings






For this Christmas I made Christmas stockings following a free pattern in Little cotton rabbit website what a fabulous work.
I also thought to knit a color combination of green and white that wasn't in the website but I had lot of green yarn:)

I loved making those stockings, I hope you have fun too.
Merry Christmas

My First Booties



Thank you for stopping by.

I know how hard knitting might sound when you are new to it, believe me I am quiet new myself but then the more the see what wonderful work it creates the more the want to knit....

This is my first perfectly knit booties at least I felt that way when it was all done and my son wore them in his little feets.

These are an inspiration from Debbie Bliss design except that I added I-cord kind of string to tie the shoe, my son is smart enough to figure out how to get them out still. This is why you need an I-cord





For those beginning to knit, I just wanted to present something may be to get to going. Believe me I have started reading book instruction only to see in the end that the work was either too short or too big, as I hardly thought about gauge earlier. Once I did these booties and they came out well, I really started to think more in terms of gauge and taking little more detail in knitting.

However I must say idea is too get started on your hobby, have fun and learn along the way.


Results are so rewarding it feels amazing to see them on your loved ones.



Have fun knitting. Feel free to write your experiences with knitting.
