A couple of meetings ago, Cristi showed some tiny baby shoes that she said stay on very well. We asked her to send us the information about them, and here we are with the ‘follow-up.’
Cristi said…
The pattern is Christine’s Stay On Baby Booties. Here’s the link:
They’re so quick and simple. I need to start another pair. They’re fun!
On the Fuzzy Galore site, the post mentions… This pattern was published in Threads no 22 (April 89) in a letter to the editor from Christine Bourquin. She was at the time 95 and living in Redwood City CA, still knitting, and expressed the desire to have her pattern live on.
Our wonderful Charities Coordinator, Jeanie, suggested that these would make excellent items for the Florence Crittenton center, and that you could cast on a pair while having fun at our Knit in Public day this Saturday, June 12.
Stitch-N-Pitch
As a side note, we heard from Betsey at Baskets of Yarn that they’re having a ‘stitch n’ pitch’ event at the Knights that same evening. She wrote:
