Thanksgiving is time for pumpkin pie and Aunt Edna and loosened belt buckles, but it's also time to give thanks to America's native cultures for all the life-saving knowledge they shared with Plymouth's earliest settlers. In honor of that friendship, we bring you moccasin-inspired baby booties!

Just in time for chilly feet, these Blue Sky Alpaca mocs will keep tiny toes warm all winter long. They are simple enough for beginners, with an easy construction - no gussets, no turning of heels! - and fun enough for every level of knitter. Whip up a pair to enliven this year's Thanksgiving dinner, or make a set of three for a really charming present. I have to warn you, they're addictive!

Thanks! - Whitney
