How big should knitted newborn booties be?
If you want to knit your first pair of baby shoes, the following foot lengths can serve as a rough guide:
- 0 - 3 months, 3.15 - 3.93 in (ca. 8 - 10 cm)
- 2 - 8 months, 3.93 - 4.33 in (ca. 10 - 11 cm)
- 8 - 12 months, 4.33 - 4.72 in (ca. 11 - 12 cm)

How many stitches to cast on for baby booties?
In my baby booties patterns, you’ll always find the exact number of stitches to cast on tailored to your baby’s age. However, you can easily adjust the size by choosing different yarn weights: knit the same booties with a finer yarn for a smaller fit, or use a thicker yarn to create baby shoes that turn out slightly larger.
