These beautiful baby shoes are part of my stay-on range, they really do stay put! Grace is a lightweight summer shoe that feels like a sock but fits like a shoe. They slip on easily then the structured, elasticated ankle band keeps them on, while still being flexible and comfy. The Grace baby shoe is a relaxing, speedy knit with minimal finishing, they make a perfect baby gift. Also great for winter over tights or socks. My stay-on range has been tried and tested by over 2K knitters across Ravelry, Etsy and Love knitting.
