Cotton Baby Booties

I finished the baby booties for my friend and just in time too because on Friday she delivered a wonderful healthy little baby girl! 

I probably tried about 4 different patterns until I just made-up my own by smushing a bunch of different ones together. It’s not a perfect pattern (I think the booties are a tad bit long) but they were by far my favourites from all the versions I made. If anyone is interested I’ve listed the pattern below:
