Skill Level: experienced beginner
Sizes:
0-3 months (3.5 inch sole length)
Reminder: For more sizes you can purchase the premium inexpensive printable PDF.
Materials Used:
- Size (4) Worsted Weight Yarn
- Crochet hooks: Size F (3.75mm) *or size needed to obtain gauge
- Darning needle
- Measuring tape/ruler
- Scissors
- 2 stitch markers
- 2 buttons, 1/2 inch or 5/8 inch
Gauge:
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 (American Terminology):
sl st = slip stitch
ch = chain
sc = single crochet
hdc = half double crochet
dc = 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.
- Join – At the end of each row join with a slip stitch to the first stitch of that row (NOT the beginning chain stitch) 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 beginning chain(s) of each row DO NOT count as a stitch.
- On rows 5-7 of the bootie, 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.
- Left and right shoes are worked the same through row 7.
- On row 7 two stitch markers are placed to mark the starting point for the final row and for the strap.
