How cute is this little baby girl? Those booties she’s rocking are pretty adorable too. At just a week old, she already has impecible taste in fashion. I bet you know a few little ones that could use a pair of these booties! As you can see, they are perfect for those lazy days just lounging around on the couch, waiting for the next meal.

My favorite part about this crochet project (other than the fact that I got to take photos with the cutest family around), is how quickly everything worked up from start to finish. I finished this pair in about 25 minutes, which makes these the perfect last minute gift for a baby shower. They could probably even be completed on the way to the hospital to visit the new baby, assuming you’re not driving, of course. Go ahead and see how it’s done in the video below and check out the free pattern beneath the video. Happy crocheting, friends!
