After sharing the Loopy Love Blanket and matching Loopy Love Hats, I had a request for matching booties! And so, I took on the challenge of creating my very first baby booties pattern – the Loopy Love Newborn Baby Booties!

The MIni Moogly Sweater was the first sweater pattern I ever wrote, and in fact one of the first baby sweater patterns I ever made! It was a mashup inspired by two great patterns: Kelly’s Sweater, by Bella Bambina Knits, and Auntie M’s Abigail’s Baby Sweater, which was nearly lost before it found a new home here on Moogly. Since I first posted my little sweater recipe, new sizes, refinements and errata have been added. So it was time to re-write it, re-work it, insert all the things I’ve learned about pattern writing in the meantime, and put it all together in one, easy to read pattern!

You’d think that babies would come with some warning. And they do, they do, at least in my experience. But when you aren’t the one with the constant AHEM physical reminders, those 9 months just fly by! Before you know it, the imminent arrival is REALLY REALLY imminent… and as a crafter, you can’t just run out to the big box store for some anonymous onesies! You must make something! A baby blanket is always great, but let’s face it, they do take time. But a crocheted baby sweater? Perfect! Quick, easy, perfectly personalizable (it’s a word, I decided), and they take just a little bit of yarn and a couple of fun buttons.
Over the years, I’ve come up with a fast and easy recipe for baby sweaters, and while I’ll occasionally try something new, this is the design I come back to again and again.
