A Timeless Style

Crochet is a process of creating fabric from yarn, thread or other material strands using a crochet hook. It was very popular in the 19th century in Arabia, South America, China and Europe. My grandmother Marisa, my dad’s mother was one of the best knitter’s that I have ever met. She had a small home business where all types of people would place orders not just for babies, but for grownups too. She would always make shoes, sandals, dresses and even a bikini for me. I just loved how detailed and beautiful everything she did was. I sure miss my grandmother’s crochet.


Crocheted items are good to use in every season, especially the winter (it keeps those little toes warm)! Back in the days you would only find basic crochet baby items, but now there are tons of cute crochet goodies for babies. 


I know that it is harder to find clothes, shoes and other things for baby boys but you would be surprised of how cute these crochet items are. They are perfect as Baby Shower gifts!
Some people may find them cheesy but I find them so stylish! Newborns and infants can have a difficult time keeping their shoes on but with crochet booties they stay longer and sometimes till you take them off. Their fatty little feet just look too adorable in them!

  2. These are so cute! I need to start crocheting again . . . haven't done that for many years. I actually prefer to knit, but crocheting goes very fast. You can make a set of baby booties in a few hours!
