Ugg boots can also be knitted, if not for cold and frosty winters, then at the beginning of frosts you can walk in insulated models with a pattern of lush English elastic.
Here it is not only the knitting needles that need to be praised, the hook also did a great job. After all, the bottom was created with its help.

And finally, the model of the season. These are high knitted boots. They could use an accessory such as a handbag created with similar patterns.
Knitting patterns for boots
We have already started this topic a little, regarding a suitable pattern. Here is an English elastic band - it will make the boots voluminous. For indoor models, it can be advantageously used for the shank, and the satin stitch can be used to make the toe.
The most common pattern for boots is braids and arans; it is suitable even for beginners. There are so many of them that your eyes simply run wide at all this splendor.
Garter stitch will be less popular, but it can still be used because the fabric is much thicker than regular satin stitch.
Patterns with rhombuses are the trend of the season and, perhaps, it is not so voluminous, but it also deserves attention.
What knitting needles and threads are suitable for knitting boots?
Knitting needles for boots are stocking models. It is very important to pay attention to their thickness. It should perfectly complement the yarn to make the product denser and stronger. The yarn itself that should be used for boots is a strong fiber. The following options will definitely cope with this task:
- cotton threads;
- linen threads;
- silk threads.
To make it all warmer, it is better to add a little warm fiber to strong yarns.
How to knit boots with knitting needles step by step description
The neat and delicate design of these boots will be good for the home.But if you wish, you can also knit a product for the street. By adding good insulation and an outdoor sole.
To work you will need:
- pink yarn based on 50% wool;
- knitting needles number 4;
- synthetic leather.
Braid pattern
The pattern repeat with braids consists of 18 loops. To create it, you will need additional knitting needles (they will help transfer the loops for crossing). It would also be a good idea to get special markers, this will save you from constantly counting stitches between crossings. So, the first row is 3 p/p, 6 k/p, 3 p. and 6 persons. Knit like this all the time, but in every 10th row (counted together with the purl rows, but in the diagram there are only front ones) cross according to the pattern.
Stage: Sole
They took a leather substitute and drew a sole on it. We added 2 cm on the back and 2 cm on the toe. Trace and cut out. Next, we knitted the sample using garter stitch knitting needles. We calculated how many loops would be needed for the width of the foot. We knitted the required set and estimated how many additions would need to be made for the widest part of the foot. We assessed the diagram and added length and width if necessary. We tied the two parts of the soles together and set them aside.
Important! If you cut out small soles from fleece and sew them onto knitted soles, the boots will be softer and warmer.
Stage: toe
For the toe, you need to select the middle 7 loops on the toe and start knitting according to the fabric pattern. Knit rows and at the same time pick up the loops from the side surface of the sole. This will create an expansion. The pattern will be added gradually. In total, you will get three pattern repeats along the toe and a total of 6 braids. They tied it to the middle of the foot and stopped.
Stage: side surfaces
We assessed how many more repeats could be made and cast on the required number of stitches with knitting needles along the remaining side of the sole.Next, knitting will be in the round. Follow the pattern of the canvas and reach the desired height. Close the loops.
Stage: assembly
The assembly of such a model consists of carefully sewing the leather substitute to the knitted part. To make the leather stronger along the edges, you can pre-stitch it on a machine and make a good overlocker. The threads should be the same color as the leather substitute.
For a street model, it is better to use a rubber sole. The knitted product is first sewn to it, and then glue is passed along the side surfaces. This approach can guarantee good grip. Before stitching the product, you can use a special tool to make fools on the sides of the rubber sole. The threads that need to be held together must be very strong.
Important! A thread that matches boots with rubber soles will look elegant, but you can also match the color of the sole itself.
The model is ready. You can decorate in several ways. This can be done by using large beads. Beads look good on a knitted product. Tassels and various pom-poms with strings are not prohibited. There will be a good field for imagination. Try making these adorable boots with your own hands.
