Shoes always look touching on girls' feet. But how mesmerizing booties in this style are is just a dream. Warm and simple patterns can be made using a small amount of yarn and a hook. In these models, the master pays more attention and time to decoration so that the models turn out luxurious. The girl will be delighted with this new product. And the bows and beads will make this pair of shoes a girl’s favorite. Good taste needs to be instilled from early childhood, which is what these complicated booties using a hook help you make.
Selection of yarn and hook
The material that the master chooses for his work should always be completely hypoallergenic. The shoes should be quite warm, and therefore wool in the thread is simply necessary. Just not all wool can be used here on equal terms. She should not cause allergies, and be very soft and neat.
Also a very important point for such work will be high material strength. This may be a thread from a series of sock yarns, but which at the same time will satisfy the requirements of a children's product. May need to go to a softer fiber add cotton thread for strength, which is quite durable.
The master also always pays attention to the hook. Important choose your own model, which will be comfortable primarily for the master’s hand. But accordingly, the tool must match the material; the hooks differ in size.
Important! For each yarn, its own hook number is selected according to thickness. Manufacturers include a hint on the yarn label to make working with the fiber more convenient.
Sample
A sample is a small canvas that a master creates and uses the most convenient pattern from the model for calculating loops. It is important to knit a sample and use as many threads as will be used for this pattern. Also, the sample is always performed in the same way as the pattern. After knitting the required size of fabric, you will need a ruler.
The master will calculate how many elements and rows of 10 cm are obtained using a ruler attached to the sample. Next, using a simple proportion, you can calculate how many loops will be needed to complete the item, and how many rows will be needed for the element.
How to crochet booties-shoes?
Crochet shoes are very similar to regular booties. But more often they are simply lower, and instead of the usual elastic band they have a beautiful clasp. We can talk for a long time about all kinds of jewelry for such a couple. But the principle of creation is almost the same.
For masters it’s more convenient to start performing these booties with a trace. Then along the edge of each trace there is a set of loops to obtain the side surface. The toe is knitted accordingly, then the heel and the fastener itself.This is where the main detail ends, and an equally interesting activity begins - decoration and fitting. Below is a detailed description of two beautiful bootie models.
We knit booties-shoes in single crochet stitches
Cute shoes with flowers are used to decorate this masterpiece.
To work you will need:
- thread for booties in two colors;
- hook according to the thickness of the prepared thread;
- large rhinestones for decoration;
- glue.
Measurements
Measure the length of the leg and the width of the baby's foot. Next, measure the cross-section of the ankle joint.
Sample
Make a pattern from the pattern of single crochet stitches. Then determine the density for such a pattern from the selected yarn. Calculate how many loops and rows are needed for the sole, and how much will be spent on the cross section.
Foot
A special diagram is provided. Knit two such details at once according to your standards and pattern for one shoe. Later, carefully sew on the traces, and additionally make tacks along the central and median line of each trace.
Sides

For the sides, you will need to take the traces in your hands and start casting on loops from the penultimate row. This is necessary to obtain a small border. It is very important to make at least two columns in one hole at the turning points. Next, start small decreases along the toe, and to do this, simply knit two loops with one top. Place a small mesh in the middle of the canvas. This single crochet pattern with holes by passing a post and knitting one air loop instead. The last row is made of contrasting thread using simple single crochets.
Strap
Separately knit a strap from one side (inner). Execute it single crochetto make it denser.

- beads for decoration.
Measurements
Measure the length of the baby’s foot, then the width of the foot and you can start making the product.
Sample
Crochet a small sample using the elastic pattern. Then determine the knitting density for it and you can estimate how many loops and rows will be required to complete the specified shoes.
Insoles
For the insoles, knit the required sizes according to the fabric pattern, then cut similar sizes from soft and beautiful fabric that will match the color of the model. You can experiment and use more contrasting traces.
Sides
Cast on the loops with a crochet hook, and from the last row, follow the traces and immediately perform a row using an elastic band in a crochet pattern. But space between elastic strips by 2 loops. Next, knit several rows and change the elastic band to 1:1.
