Baby Shoes for a Warrior
Baby Shoes for a Warrior
"I have been crocheting for years and consider myself an experienced crocheted. However, there are still some things that I haven't been able to accomplish to my utter frustration. That's the case with baby shoes! I know, silly right? How these small little things can be more difficult than this blanket? I don't know! It's just one (of many) things I couldn't master! I mean I tried my hand on lots of patterns. Most of them were really well written and detailed too. But somehow I always ended up with shoes that didn't look like ...well shoes!"

While the bulk of the bootie is worked in a fairly conventional fashion, I have never seen such an interesting way to close the top of a baby shoe. Not only is it functional, but results in a very pretty design. Its almost a shame to cover it with that little bow! It would look equally sweet with some ribbon roses or other posies.

Honestly, these have got to be the easiest Mary Jane baby shoes I have seen. She has simplified and adjusted the pattern so that ANYBODY can follow it and be successful at it. One thing that is different is the gigantic cluster stitch that makes up the top/toe of the foot. Doesn't get any easier! She also adjusted how the sole is usually worked, by making it rows instead of working it in the round. If you've never done baby shoes before, give these a try. You might surprise yourself.
