Ballet Crochet Baby Slippers
"Make your little ballerina the sweetest pair of crochet baby slippers with these easy baby ballerina point shoes! These baby booties are crocheted starting with the sole and then the body of the shoe. Then ribbons and stick-on crystal accents are added. These slippers are adorable in one color, but you can also work them in multiple colors. I’ve seen them with the sole one color and the body of the shoe in a different color and it worked out really great. You can also make them without the ribbons and accents and put a simple elastic strap on if desired. Yarn: Red Heart Baby Hugs Light (100% Acrylic; 318 yards [290 meters]/127 grams): #3724 Pinkie, 1 skein (DK weight #3) Hook: US size F (3.7 5mm) Notions: Tapestry needle; removable stitch markers; six 5mm stick-on crystal accents; three yards 5/8” ribbon; matching thread; sewing needle."
