Yarn
I used Lion Brand Basic Stitch 100% Premium Acrylic Yarn to make these crochet baby booties. I love this yarn because it is easy to use and does not split. I have used it to make other crochet projects such as Must-Have Crochet Scarf for Men, Jade’s Beanie, and Must-Have Men’s Beanie.
If you can’t find this yarn you can substitute it with comparable yarns such as
