Booties look very nice on baby's feet. But in addition to aesthetic qualities, they also have a very intense warming effect. The baby's feet should always be warm. In such shoes, parents can be sure that the child will only enjoy playing, and not constantly adjusting his socks. Also, such lovely models take into account the fact that children usually love similar boots. These boots will not go unnoticed, you need to be sure of that.
Yarn and hook
Yarn for a child is always a separate topic. The wool content should also be taken into account here. The fiber must be very warm. But at the same time very pleasant and non-prickly. No less When choosing, it is important to pay attention to hypoallergenic compounds. There is a whole line of yarn for children.
But not everything can be used for socks. Since simple children's yarn is not particularly durable.Therefore, you will have to either add cotton thread or pay attention to the children's line of sock yarn.
It is very important to choose a hook for the model that is convenient for the craftsman and at the same time suitable for the yarn, or rather the thickness of its thread. Pay special attention when knitting in multiple threads. In this case, simple advice from the manufacturer regarding the choice of hook number will not do.
How to crochet booties?
For booties, the craftsman will initially make insoles. There are many schemes for them. It is very important to take into account your individual measurements, and not perform the work strictly according to the provided scheme. In any case, you will have to add somewhere and subtract the number of loops somewhere. Next, the heel and toe and the side walls are performed at the same time.
The difference between such a pair of shoes for the house and ordinary booties or socks is that they have a very loose shank and are quite high, so that the product is very similar to boots (high boots). To ensure that they do not get lost from the leg at the ankle, the master additionally installs laces, Velcro, elastic or another type of fastener. Let's take a closer look at the description of two crochet models for children.
Booties with a crocodile pattern for a newborn
Very cute and appetizing models for the smallest member of the family. How much work the master put into them and how beautiful they are. Once you start, not a single creator can stop until he completes such a beautiful work to the bitter end.
For work use:
- children's yarn for socks;
- hook according to the thickness of the thread;
- buttons for fastening.
Measurements
Measure the length of the newborn's leg and its width. Then measure the circumference of your ankle.
Sample
For the sample, use a crocodile pattern and a pattern of columns.Knit two squares and estimate how many loops are located in 10 cm, and how many rows there are. Further, using the density of 2 numbers, it will be easier to calculate the required number of loops for the circumference and length of the foot.
Important! Any measure can be adjusted during the execution of the model.
Foot
For the foot, use a special pattern and knit a small oval for a tiny foot.
Toe and sides
Knit the toe and sides at the same time. To do this, pick up loops along the edge of the foot and gradually knit in circular rows. In turns on the trail do neat smoothing, just knit several stitches in one loop. Rib the toe and sides using a crochet hook. To get the toe you will need to make small decreases. For such a rubber band You just need to combine the rows with stripes and knit further. Work rows to the ankle line.
Crocodile pattern
Then after the ankle, use the main pattern - this is a crocodile crochet pattern. Very reminiscent of a shell. Knit the required number of rows and stop knitting.
Assembly
For fastening, simply sew on buttons and make eyelets.
This model looks good not only on small feet. If desired, you can perform a similar scheme for an older child.
Booties with crochet mesh
Very cute and comfortable booties (boots) can be crocheted with a simple mesh pattern. It is advisable to use only mesh for the shank, but make the toe and heel in the usual dense patterns. For a trace, you can generally use two threads.
For work use:
- soft and durable yarn for socks and children's products;
- hook according to the thickness of children's yarn.
Measurements
You only need to take three measurements for your child’s leg.The first is the length of the leg along the foot. The second measurement is the width of the baby’s foot, it is always measured at the widest point so that the baby is very comfortable and warm in such slippers. The third measurement is the circumference of the shank. This measurement should be reduced by 2 cm so that the boots fit tighter. Additionally, for this model there are special laces along the shank, which are also made using this yarn and hook.
Sample
For the sample, it is advisable to use two patterns and make two squares at once and then calculate the knitting density for two fabrics at once. This is a canvas with posts and mesh. Then it will be much easier to calculate the required number of loops for casting on and for the trace.
Sledik
Knit a shoe track according to the given pattern and your own measurements of the baby’s feet. It is advisable to make it very strong and you can either add cotton threads to the strong threads. Or knit traces in several threads or the entire work. It will be easier to knit such traces, since immediately in the first row a chain of the required number of loops for the length of the foot is cast on. It will also be easy to adjust the width of the foot using such a simple diagram.
Heel and toe
Along the penultimate row, knit several rows using the single crochet pattern. Next, knit the toe separately and use a different pattern for it. These are higher columns - single crochets.
Shin net
The last diagram and the last stage in the model remain. You will need to knit according to the given pattern, but with small additions. This is a very beautiful and unusual shank for such booties. The last row is done with simple single crochets and be sure to use contrasting yarn. The last row in this pattern should turn out to be triangles.
Now all that remains is to insert the lace (make the lace with simple air loops of the required length). Insert laces into each boot at the ankle line and make a small and neat bow.
So the beautiful model is ready. Additionally For insulation, you can insert insoles cut from fleece to the size of knitted insoles.
Making knitted booties is not that difficult. These are very small items and will not take much time. More beautiful works for every master.
