DIRECTIONS

Follow my Baby Sneakers Crochet Pattern for the booties.  Instead of navy blue yarn, this time I used a bright pink yarn (Arbor Rose).  Feel free to use any color you wish.  Then follow my pattern for the “X” embellishment below.

“X” Embellishment (Make 2 per bootie)

***Use a 3.25 crochet needle for the embellishment. I used white yarn.

Ch 2, hdc in 2^nd ch from hook, ch 9, hdc in 2^nd to last ch from the hook, fasten off, leaving long tail to sew onto the bootie.

 

ASSEMBLY

Lacing the Bootie

Lace the sneaker according to my directions for the Baby Sneakers Crochet Pattern.

Sewing the “X” Embellishment 

1. Determine the side of the shoe you want to be the outside and use a tapestry needle to sew each of the 2 embellishments you made onto that side of the shoe in the shape of an X.
2. Sew the embellishments in the shape of an X on the opposite side of the other shoe so that the design will face the outside.

Optional

You can sew the sides of the toe to each side of the sneaker if you choose to do so. This will help to keep any baby toes from wiggling out in between the side of the sneaker and the toe piece.
