The combination of navy blue and white stripes with a big red bow adds the perfect touch of cuteness and charm to any baby’s outfit.

How to booties for a summer baby
As long as you have a basic knowledge of crochet stitches, such as increasing and decreasing and working into the back loops, you should be able to handle this easy skill level pattern. Additionally, you’ll need some basic sewing skills to attach the bow at the end.
To make these booties, I used DK (weight 3) yarn in three different colors. While I chose navy, red, and white for a classic nautical theme, feel free to let your creativity shine and choose any colors you like! Just remember to check your gauge and adjust your hook size if necessary, to ensure a perfect fit for your baby.
