The Portion of my Inheritance

It all started when I saw a pair of knitted baby booties online. I fell in love with them and just had to have them for my dimpled darlin baby. 

I clicked on the image and discovered that those tiny little knitted booties costs $48 plus shipping! Being way out of my budget I began a search for a knitting pattern that would be similar to the booties that I loved so much, but without the price tag.

After days of pouring over the internet I finally found a pattern on etsy.com  (one of my most favorite online stores EVER!) 

Here is the amazing pattern, but while you are there check out the rest of her patterns, they are wonderful.

My new favorite yarn is I Love This Yarn and you can find it at Hobby Lobby. They have every color you can imagine at a low price. They have the most vibrant, jewel tone colors and I can not get enough.                       

I love this pink color so much that I made three pairs of booties and a scarf out the same color.   

Since baby is just learning how to walk and my floors are all hard floors, I added a piece of nonskid shelf liner on the bottom of the sole. I just sewed it on the bottom with the same yarn, using the holes in the liner.         

I did have a hard time with sizing with this pattern since I am not one to gauge my projects–don’t judge me—so I had to adjust the sizing to make it a perfect fit for her.     

But you can bet that this little girl will have a pair of these booties every winter–in a jewel tone color.

That their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.  Col.2:2-3
