Roughly three years ago I came across this free "look a like" Ugg bootie pattern on Ravelry and I knew I had to make them. Many of my friend's children were now having children of their own and I knew they would be the perfect gift. I even bought the pink and blue yarn. (Of course what else?) Like most projects, I started with gusto and then eventually put it aside when other more pressing matters came my way. Is it any surprise that I didn't finished them? I doubt it. The precious babies came into the world as expected and none of them were to wear the intended booties. Until now When I heard that a close friend of my daughter was expecting, I knew I had the perfect gift. Again I dug through my stash and unearthed the pattern, needles and yarn that I needed and went to work on the little, bitty booties. I knit 2 pair, 1 blue and 1 pink as the sex of the baby was to be a surprise. We all waited not so patiently until we finally got the news.
"IT'S A BOY "
The blue Uggs were promptly shipped out to California.
Oh, and the pink ones are ready and waiting for the next little baby girl that comes along. How about that; for the first time in my life I'm ready and waiting.
You can find this delightful free pattern at Madmonkeyknits . She has many free patterns listed on her webpage.
PEACE AND LOVE
