Looking for good baby booties pattern

I’m almost 3 months along now, and our baby is due the first week in December…I’ve been looking all over the internet for a free baby booties pattern that seems more modern…any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

First of all… Congratulations! :yay:

Here’s some patterns to check out.

Congratulations! My daughter is expecting her first baby the second week of December.

All of those are really sweet! I especially love the “Mary Jane” style. I was really looking into making these:

But I have no idea where I could get the yarn from…was really hoping to possible either order online or find a store close by…and I can’t. Any ideas on that? Or perhaps on a yarn that would work just as well? I’m itching to make SOMETHING for baby…and I really want to make these (or something similar) just need the right yarn!

And miss_molly, congrats on the grandchild on the way! You must be very excited! :slight_smile:

You don’t need to use the suggested yarn, but you do want to find something the same gauge.

According to this site it’s a bulky ribbon yarn. If you use another yarn it will look a little different though, but not necessarily bad. :wink:
