Note About the Two Booties Patterns

The pictures of the two booties patterns look nearly identical because they work up the same.  Which pattern you choose is determined by what construction method you want to use.

2-Needle Booties
   Great beginner learning pattern
   Worked "in the flat" so can be tucked in your bag
   Does require grafting up the back (instructions included)

In-the_Round Booties
   Working in the round can be a little fumbly, particularly at first
   The cuff is worked much more quickly without turning
   Flawless cuff without seamwork

Again:  THEY LOOK THE SAME WHEN FINISHED

Happy Knitting!
