Introduction: The bootie is
made from the cuff down and in the round, then onto a flat row for a bit of
shaping, then back into the round to shape it all off. If you can do the
stitches explained you can make this and if you want a super quick and easy
bootie pattern, this is for you!
The idea behind this pattern
was to create a functional bootie that would be quick and easy to make. I am
hoping that this pattern will not only reach the beginner, but the many of
thousands whom crochet for charity. I am a strong believer in the “Pay It
Forward” motto and this is my way of helping those who help others.
