Felt-Soled Crocheted Baby Booties

Hello blog reading friends!
Yes -my family and I made it back, safe and sound, from our week in Florida.  I have a ton of pics to show you, but I need to go through and edit a few. So, I promise  I'll share some pics in my next post.  


In the meantime......

A couple of weeks ago, I spied  the cutest project made by Jaime (from Raising Up Rubies )on Instagram.

She was crocheting baby booties but adding a little flair to the  soles.

I immediately grabbed my crochet hook and a bootie pattern ( I used  THIS ONE) and got started.


Aren't they the cutest?  


After crocheting the foot section and the sweet little ruffly cuff, I added some sweet little pink buttons.  These secure the booties onto  baby's wiggly feet.


And the soles?  What makes them special?

Oh yes.  Some felt hearts, hand-stitched with embroidery floss.  


Ca-ute!! If I do say so myself.  : )


I have 2 cousins and 4 friends ready to have babies in the next 6 weeks.  I have a feeling I'll be making a few more pairs of these in the near future.  

Thanks for popping by!!

Hugs,
B.

  3. Those little booties are adorable. The heart on the sole really sets them apart and adds a lovely extra detail. x
