Check out my newest pattern – Baby Mary Janes!
Skill Level: beginner
Sizes:
0-3 months
3-6 months
6-9 months
9-12 months
Materials Used:
Worsted weight yarn (4) (I prefer “I Love This Yarn” from Hobby Lobby.)
main color (MC), approximately 50 yards for largest size
contrasting color (CC), approximately 12 yards for largest size
For this pattern I find it’s easier to make the first 3 rows then measure to determine the correct hook size needed. *See pattern for measurements.
Abbreviations Used:
ch = chain
sc = single crochet
ss = slip stitch
st = stitch
sc2tog = single crochet 2 together
hdc = half double crochet
dc2tog = double crochet 2 together
If you are new at reading crochet patterns, here is a great tutorial by the Craft Yarn Council that I highly recommend.
Notes:
When you see ( ), everything in the parentheses should be worked as a set. For example, (1sc, 1dc) 2X, means, “sc, dc, sc, dc”.
When you see a number followed by a stitch, that stitch needs to be worked over that number of stitches. For example, “5sc” means 1 sc in each of the next 5 stitches.
At the end of each row join with a slip stitch to the first stitch (NOT the chain 1) of that row to complete the row.
The number in parentheses at the end of each row indicates the total stitch count for that row when completed.
The chain 1 at the beginning of the row DOES NOT count as a stitch.
On rows 5-7, the 1st stitch is skipped, and the last stitch is worked in the join of the previous row. This prevents the finished bootie from twisting out of shape.
Pattern (Sizes 0-3 & 3-6 Months)
Use F hook (3.75mm) for size 0-3 months.
Use G hook (4.25mm) for size 3-6 months.

The booties pattern was so easy to follow. I had never crochet booties before. I made each within two hours. My new granddaughter will love them. Thank you.
I’m so happy you like the pattern! And congratulations on the new granddaughter!
At last a bootie pattern I can follow & do. I can do socks but have never managed to do booties until now – thank you so much for a great pattern 😊
You are so very welcome! I’m so happy you like the pattern!
Hi. I’m in the uk. Are the crochet hook sizes the same as the ones in your patten?. Thanks
That’s a really great question! Here’s a link that you might find helpful: https://www.crochet-world.com/hook_sizes.php
There are some differences in how hook sizes are labeled. In my patterns I include the US terms for the hook sizes, as well as the metric size. The metric size is universal. For example, my size F hook is 3.75mm. In the UK your hook that is 3.75mm is the exact same size, but it will most likely be labeled as a #8 hook. I hope this helps!
I loved your design. I made some mistakes but still like the outcome. I’m really enjoying everything I’ve seen so far and look forward to your emails.
Thank you so much! I’m so happy you like my pattern! And I would love to see your finished booties! You can share them on Facebook or Instagram and tag me, @auntbsloops.
Hello,
I love your pattern but I don’t understand the « turn » in row 12…can you explain what you mean? Or post a photo of those last rows?
Thank you very much !
I’m so happy you like the pattern! What I mean by “turn” is to literally turn your work and start working in the opposite direction. Just like you would do if you were working rows on a blanket for example. I like to do this so when you fold the cuff down the “pretty side” or “right side” will be on the outside of the booties. It’s totally optional though! If you like the way it looks, don’t worry about turning. I hope that helps!
Hello
Thank you very much for your explanation it’s very clear now! ☺️
As I didn’t understand, I did the row 12 in the back loop to help the folding and it look nice 😉
Have a nice Christmas Day
I have just finished row 3 and my measurement is 4” instead of 3 1/2 using a size F hook. Do I need to do tighter stitches?
Try using a smaller size hook. You can also try using a different yarn that’s a bit thinner. For example, Redheart with Love yarn is technically a size (4) medium worsted weight yarn, like the pattern calls for. But, it is very thick compared to other yarns in the same category. I hope these suggestions help. Let me know how it works out!
thanks so much for sharing
I love this pattern and most of the directions were clear. I just did not understand the back of the booty where it said,” “Row 5: Ch 1, skip first st, 36hdc. (Last hdc is made in the join of previous row.) (36). ”
When I chained one and skipped the first stitch it left a hole and I wasn’t sure how to join the next row.
Rows 5, 6, and 7 are worked this way to prevent the booties from twisting. At the beginning when you chain 1 and skip the first stitch, it does appear to leave a small hole. But when you get around to the last stitch it goes into to join of the previous row which kind of fills in that hole and makes it less noticeable. Then to join, slip stitch to the first hdc you made at the beginning of the row. (Sometimes it helps to place a stitch marker in the first stitch so when you come back around you can clearly see it.) In the picture labeled “Row 5” the black arrow is pointing to the spot where you work the last hdc of the row, which is the join from the previous row. The blue arrow is pointing to the first hdc of the row, which is where you join with a slip stitch.
I hope this helps! If you have any more questions or need help with any of my patterns you can email me at AuntB@AuntBsLoopsNStitches.com . I’d love to hear from you!
Love this pattern thank you soo much!
I have a problem with the toe area appearing at the side of the boot instead of the front. My 1st stitch moves round in a spiral (I am ss and ch1 every round) not sure what I’m doing wrong 🙁 I had the same problem with another pattern I tried.
I’m sorry. That sounds frustrating. 🙁 Without sitting next to you it’s hard to say why this is happening. I do suggest you use stitch markers to mark the first stitch of the row. With hdc it can sometimes be a little tricky locating the first stitch.
When I was first designing the pattern I had this same issue. The toe of the booties was twisting to the left. I fixed the problem by using the technique I describe in the Notes section #5. By skipping the first stitch and working the last stitch in the join on rows 5-7, it basically shifts the rows clockwise. That corrected the twist.
Is the toe twisting to the right or to the left? Which rows specifically are you noticing a problem?
Thanks so much for your reply. I was using a stitch marker in the first stitch but must be doing something wrong. It is twisting to the left. I will have another try and read the pattern properly as I’ve probably missed something! Really appreciate your help 🙂
Mine twisted to the left too and so I was frustrated, and confused!! One other person commented and said the same thing. She said it should fix itself in rows 5, 6, and 7!! So stick with it!! I’m at the start of row 5 now, so we’ll see!
If my comment doesn’t make sense, read through the comments until you see where someone says the same thing you did! 🙂
Very nice and easy .may I ask you to show us a book mark patterns please . Thankfully
At the end of row 5-7, do you still ss to the 1st stitch? Even though you’ve skipped one? I think this is where im going wrong 😅 thank you xx
Yes, at the end of rows 5-7 you slip stitch to the first hdc of the row. At the end of EVERY ROW you slip stitch to the first stitch (NOT the chain 1) of the row to complete the row, (see #3 and #5 of the notes section). I hope this helps! I’m working on some video tutorials for my patterns. If you would be interested in a video tutorial please let me know!
That would be so helpful 🙂 im a beginner, and your pattern is great!!!! There is something im not getting though and its driving me insane haha. Thank you! Ive read the link you provided for beginners, so im gonna try again tonight. Wish me luck xxx
I really love this pattern. I’m having some trouble with the first few rows however, chain 10 and then second from hook 7sc and 5sc in the last seems to leave an extra loop…I just continued with this and it looks fine but I calculated 21 stitches not 22. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you
Hi Katharine! I’m so happy you like my pattern! Ok, let’s break this down. The instructions for Row 1 are:
Ch 10. Sc in 2nd chain from hook. 7sc, 5sc in last ch, working along the opposite side of chain, 7sc, 2sc in last ch. (22)
So that’s 1sc + 7sc + 5sc + 7sc + 2sc = 22sc’s. I think you might be skipping the first sc in the second chain from the hook.
I hope this helps!
I can never thank you enough for this pattern! I had given up on making booties for my layered sets because they were all so complicated. Thank you thank you!😀
You just made my day!! Thank you so much!
I like this pattern a lot! Thanks so much! I’m a newbie at crochet. I had some trouble the first time and my seam in the back with the slip stitches went in a diagonal direction instead of straight and the toe of my bootie was way over on the left. But i took it apart a million times and redid it and finally figured out which stitch was which. I apparently skipped too many and slip stitched into the wrong stitch. But I finally got it! Still takes me about 2 hours to do but probably because I’m new.
High five for sticking with it and not giving up!! I’m super proud of you!!
The best advice I can give to beginners is to use stitch markers. If you don’t have actual stitch markers that’s ok. You can use a bobby pin, or even a scrap piece of contrasting color yarn. After you make the first stitch of the row, mark it. So when you get to the end of the row you will know where to join.
I promise I’m working on some videos for you guys. I just need to learn the video editing part. Everyone is a newbie at something! lol
What is dc2tog? I’ve tried looking it up but can’t find it
On all of my patterns I list the abbreviations used and what they mean. (Right about the Notes section.) dc2tog = double crochet two together. Here is a link to a tutorial on how to work this stitch, https://hearthookhome.com/dc2tog-how-to-double-crochet-two-together/ . I hope this helps!
Hi Aunt B.
I made about a dozen sets of these booties. Then I got to thinking, what would happen if I went DOWN in hook size…
So, using Caron SimplySoft and a D/3.5mm hook, I followed the 0-3 month pattern. The result was a 3″ sole after row 3. They worked up normally and I reduced the cuff by one round (for esthetics).
All said and done, I made late gestation (32+ weeks) preemie booties!
I’m going to explore a little more with a smaller hook and some sport weight or fingering yarn and see what pops out of the end of my hook. 😁
I mainly just wanted to say thanks for the easy-to-follow, well written pattern.
Have a wonderful day and HAPPY HOOKIN’!!
That’s so wonderful and creative! Thank you so much for sharing. I’m sure this will be helpful to others. I love it!
I am new at crochets.your explanations with the pictures so easy to understand . Thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing this adorable pattern 🙂 I can’t wait to make these. I crochet a lot of booties with suede-leather soles but have never made them with a crocheted sole so I’m super excited to make this style , they look so sweet. I’m wondering would I alter things to much in terms of size etc. if I made the cuffed potion of the bootie ribbed ? I love the contrast of a ribbed cuff. Thank you again so much.
Thanks for the free bootie pattern. I have tried several other bootie patterns but found them too confusing. Your pattern was straight forward and easy to follow, and the little bootie that I just finished looks exactly like your picture. Success!!
thanks a million! Lauren M.
That’s great! I’m so happy to hear this! 🙂
Thank you for your pattern. Iam new at hooking😀 and have read many bootee patterns and not understood them. But your pattern with the example has given me new courage. I have just retired and want to do some charity work. My friend informed me a new born baby orphanage desperately need baby bootees and beanies. So here goes!
Thank you for replying to each enquiry as that has helped me understand a bit better. Do you have a video tutorial out yet.
Blessings Hazel
You are so kind giving all this help you must be a wonderful person I wish you well in your work. You have made so many people happy young and older. Thank you so much I will try these also. Good luck.
I have crocheted many different bootee patterns for charity over the years and your pattern is one of the best. No wonky line at the back join. Easy to follow and well written. Thanks
Thank you Barbara! I really appreciate you!
Hello! I always wanted to make booties for my babies but didn’t have internet then and didn’t know how. Now I am about to be a Grandma and am trying it out.
One question though. Does the slip stitch that connects the rows count as one of the total stitch count number that is in the parentheses? I keep skipping the first stitch and not counting the chain one but the soles are still crooked. I refuse to give up though! Thank you!
Thank you so much for this pattern. It is the best and cleanest pattern I have tried yet. I understood each step in written form and my booties actually look like they are supposed to. Haha. My skill level is not quite intermediate but I’m getting there, and the other booties patterns I have tried have all confused me. Yours was very user friendly.
Your pattern is the simplest and easiest to follow of the several I’ve tried. I LOVE it and I will keep using it. Thank you for posting this. Since the first booties I made with your pattern are for a girl, I did a substitution. Instead of the last two rows, I did three SC in each stitch which makes a lovely little ruffle around the top.
Hi from UK !
I’ve only recently started crocheting and have just finished your cuffed bootie pattern – I didn’t have a contrasting colour for the cuff so used a plain yarn throughout but added a bobble stitch for the last row to add interest. Excellent pattern, easy to follow (and I’m a left hander, so always have to have this in mind when reading a pattern, not to mention US/UK stitch conversions !). I also stitched into the back loop only on row 12 (like a previous comment) to help fold the cuff. Am very pleased with the result and am now going to try your beanie pattern. Thank you 🙂
I really appreciate you for making this pattern as simple as possible. It’s my first time of following a pattern and it came out perfect. Thanks
2023 and I just found your site~ Thank you for the WWW now! I am going to have a GREAT grand girl coming in August and I so wanted to make her something and I am going to try your pattern as you have explained so well and were so kind to answer questions. THANK YOU! I hope you are well and Blessed. <3
Thank you Aunty B, soo much easier than most patterns.
Have just completed one bootie and found it easy to follow.
Thanks again
Linda
This is the best and easiest booties pattern I’ve found. I love how easy it is and the video is so helpful. I’ve tried 10 or so bootie patterns and had to quit so many because the gauge wasn’t working right. This one is spot on. Thank you!
The booties pattern was so easy to follow. I had never crochet booties before. I made each within two hours. My new granddaughter will love them. Thank you.
I’m so happy you like the pattern! And congratulations on the new granddaughter!
At last a bootie pattern I can follow & do. I can do socks but have never managed to do booties until now – thank you so much for a great pattern 😊

I have just finished row 3 and my measurement is 4” instead of 3 1/2 using a size F hook. Do I need to do tighter stitches?
Try using a smaller size hook. You can also try using a different yarn that’s a bit thinner. For example, Redheart with Love yarn is technically a size (4) medium worsted weight yarn, like the pattern calls for. But, it is very thick compared to other yarns in the same category. I hope these suggestions help. Let me know how it works out!

Since the first booties I made with your pattern are for a girl, I did a substitution. Instead of the last two rows, I did three SC in each stitch which makes a lovely little ruffle around the top.
Hi from UK !
I’ve only recently started crocheting and have just finished your cuffed bootie pattern – I didn’t have a contrasting colour for the cuff so used a plain yarn throughout but added a bobble stitch for the last row to add interest. Excellent pattern, easy to follow (and I’m a left hander, so always have to have this in mind when reading a pattern, not to mention US/UK stitch conversions !). I also stitched into the back loop only on row 12 (like a previous comment) to help fold the cuff. Am very pleased with the result and am now going to try your beanie pattern. Thank you 🙂
I really appreciate you for making this pattern as simple as possible. It’s my first time of following a pattern and it came out perfect. Thanks
2023 and I just found your site~ Thank you for the WWW now! I am going to have a GREAT grand girl coming in August and I so wanted to make her something and I am going to try your pattern as you have explained so well and were so kind to answer questions. THANK YOU! I hope you are well and Blessed. <3
Thank you Aunty B, soo much easier than most patterns.
Have just completed one bootie and found it easy to follow.
Thanks again
Linda
This is the best and easiest booties pattern I’ve found. I love how easy it is and the video is so helpful. I’ve tried 10 or so bootie patterns and had to quit so many because the gauge wasn’t working right. This one is spot on. Thank you!
Love this pattern. thanks so much for sharing.
