I've been trying to make baby booties for 3 days now. Again, things aren't going right and this is getting to be too frustrating. First of all, I can't find the yarn that the pattern calls for --- Berroco Suede. So I tried searching at Michael's and Hobby Lobby for some other yarn. I found my former knitting instructor and she suggested using Baby Bee's Dreamy Baby Chenille. I was so stupid not to check the gauge and proceeded to making the boots using size 4 and 5 needles. I was just dying to make these boots! Unfortunately, it turned out to be big enough for a 3 year old. (See left boot in the picture) Sucks. Then I tried it again --- this time, using only size 2 needles. It came out smaller but I think it still is too big for a baby. Uggggh!!!
My classes at Personal Threads will start tomorrow. Hopefully I'll be able to find Berroco Suede there and my new instructor will be able to help me with it. I got the pattern from the DIY site, btw. Click on this link for your reference. As for the pic, this is what it's supposed to look like ---->
Dya now see what I mean about how cute these booties are??? It's to die for. I really gotta learn how to knit these right!

Do you have a LYS in your area? I have made these booties and love them, they are so cute.
I think the blue is a great color.
