Kinzie is a very popular design - romper, sleeveless top, cardigan, hat and mittens ......... are all made often ~ perhaps because it is a good gender-neutral pattern.
Today a member of my facebook group - Margaret Murray - sent me a pic of little booties to match the set !

| Kinzie Newborn Baby Booties - knitted by Margaret Murray |
And she is happy to share her instructions too, based on my Amity Bootie, but with the cuff adapted to match the Kinzie design.
I think they look so cute! Thank you so much Margaret.
