I got a request to make two more pair of crocheted baby sneakers using pink and purple. This is what I came up with, and the recipient loved them! The stitch patterns were taken from a book I found and I just substituted them for the dc rows called for. I used the same crochet thread as the red pair in the previous post. The other change I made is the shoe strings are slip stitches, instead of sc; this makes them less curly. I have been asked to make a pink and white pair next, and will post them when they are completed.

I love this pattern! I found this pattern on an Etsy shop called “Childhaps” and just had to make them! This is the 3 month size, and were made for a friend who is expecting a little boy. Wouldn’t these look cute in pink for a girl?! Or with stripes of different colors, or embroidered daisy-stitch flowers! So many cute options.

When I shopped for the crochet thread, the store didn’t have red nylon in size 5, so I doubled the red colors of crochet cotton thread size 10, with a nylon thread size 2. Next time I will carry two strands (size 2) of white to make the sole more sturdy.

Just finished this Christening set for one of my close friend’s Grandbaby. She is a first-time grandmother and asked me to make a pair of booties for her precious ‘Trinity.’

This is my first time using this pattern and it is now my favorite! I have had the book that features this pattern for ever…and I have always had it on my ‘to do’ list. The New Testament Bible cover pattern is from another source and goes well with this set.

Another baby shower gift completed! This is a crocheted baby cloche to fit 9-12 months. I have actually made this cute hat before, but made it using a lavender cotton. I am now working on a little a summer sweater to match using pink and white cotton. If only I had enough hours in the day!

I finished the booties in time for the baby shower. After I took these photos, I decided to sew a little white button in the middle of each flower. It looked much better. The pattern is very easy and super cute with the fastener loop that goes around the flower. Yes, she loved the booties! I have a few more baby gifts to make, stay tuned…

I am going to another baby shower tomorrow and chose to make these cute booties from a pattern I bought from Etsy. The pattern is “Crocheted Daisy Braided Strap Booties.” I am using fingering weight Colton yarn with a size D hook.

I found where this crocheted Christening Gown set is sold on the internet! The designer sells the pdf pattern on her website.
