Making something by hand for an arriving baby is a thoughtful gesture on the part of a friend or relative -- and it's also a nice way for an expectant mom to pass time toward the end of her pregnancy. These adorable ruby-red booties are an excellent project for an experienced crocheter.
Crocheted Baby Booties

Hi, is the download link ok? when I press the link it drives me to a wrong .pdf
Thanks,
About the enormous size ... did you check the gauge? Everyone's crochet stitches are different (tighter or looser), and you may need to go down a hook size, regardless of what the instructions say.
I attempted this pattern using the appropriate yarn and hook but it ended up being enormous!?!?
halo MArtha! i'd like to thank you you for this project template. i'll try to get my hands on it for my second baby, hopefully. cute!
