Strawberry Booties
http://method13.wordpress.com/2011/03/01/strawberry-booties/
This pattern was updated with explanations added and more pictures in 2013.
You will need:
Worsted weight yarn in burgundy, a small amount of yellow, white and green.
Hooks: H-8 5.0mm and F-5 3.75mm for the little white flower.
A darning needle to sew the dashes and the french knot for the center of the flowers.
Note: This pattern is mostly worked in rounds, not flat. However you will need to work short rows over the vamp or instep. The shaping is similar to an old-fashioned bootie and many knit booties worked flat but these booties are seamless. It is not the more shoe-like shaping which you see many crochet designers making. I have never been able to keep a pair of booties on my children made with the “shoe” shaping, , although I have had a little more success with “boots”. So I wanted to keep making booties in the same way my grandmother knit the first booties for my children.
You are welcome to sell anything made from my pattern.
