For all types of crocheted booties there are detailed knitting patterns, and even the sizes of the inner insoles according to the baby’s age.

So let's start figuring out how to crochet booties... from start to finish. But first, let's see what beautiful models of booties you can knit with your own hands, using our article.

What models of booties

is now in fashion.

Very beautiful booties for boys are styled as fashionable modern shoes for babies. Knitted booties with imitation sneakers, Converse or sneakers.

For boys, you can knit moccasin booties, boat booties, booties. All these models are easy and quick to crochet if you understand the principle by which all bootie models are crocheted. THIS is exactly what WE WILL DO below in this same article.

Knitted booties for girls make them look like beautiful girlish shoes, pumps, sandals and sandals.

Knitted booties are decorated with beautiful buttons, bows, and crocheted appliqués.

Now let's understand the patterns and principles of knitting booties - step by step we will learn how to knit them with our own hands.

HOW TO KNIT ANY BOOTS.

(Crochet patterns + explanations).

All booties consist of two elements - the bottom (insole) and the upper toe part (the toe and heel are knitted together in the booties, in the round). Now we will see everything on the diagrams.

In the diagram above we see an OVAL PATTERN - this is the sole of the booties.
And just below the LONG DIAGRAM is the toe and heel part of the booties.
The arrow in the center of the long diagram points to the CENTER OF THE TOE (the nose of the booties).

We see that central part on a long diagram has connected columns (to taper knitting). That is, in this zone we knit two stitches of the previous row together into one loop - and due to this, the knitting narrows and the fabric at the toe makes a turn. In the photo below we just see a photo of this moment.

In the photo below we see booties, where each row is knitted with threads of a different color. And here in this photo you can see that in the green row we are making double stitches, hooking up two stitches of the bottom (orange) row with a thread and knitting everything in one loop. Due to this, the cape sharply narrows and makes a circular turn. That is, in this place (the cape) the knitting goes in a circle... and then, moving to the side part, it goes in a straight line as usual - column to column.

Depending on the AGE OF THE CHILD, you will need one or another size of SOLE for booties.
The principle of knitting soles is the same for any size. All of them differ only in the number of rows of columns.

All booties are knitted using this principle. And on the basis of such boats, many other models of knitted shoes for kids are created.

Here are the different booties you can knit using this one pattern.

You can ADD the design of the boats a little - add striped STRAPS to them with a button. And our pumps will turn into sandals - men's design You'll get booties - just right for boys.

If you continue knitting on BOTH SIDES - and make a chain of air loops from the heel part - on one side and on the other. And then tie 2-3 rows of posts on this chain... Then we get two straps. They can be thrown CROSS ON CROSS on a button as shown in the photo below.

Or you can make ONE STRAP from one edge of the heel to the other edge on the button on the side (as in the photo below).

Also, pay attention in the same photo with gray booties below - here there is an addition to the TOPE PART - the cape is specially extended with a rounded protrusion - and a rose is attached to this protrusion. From the inside of the cape we make a jumper-strap from air loops - and insert our transverse strap into this jumper.

If you continue knitting the booties in the round (narrowing the toe), you will get taller shoe models. These booties can also have a button strap.

Crochet booties

WITH KNITTED APPLIQUE.

You can always crochet an additional applique and decorate the toe of your booties with it.
Overlay appliqués are crocheted quickly and then secured to the toe using the same threads - pulling crochet stitches through the applique and toe.

Crochet bootie slippers can be styled to resemble the face of any animal - a mouse, a bunny, a dog, an elephant.

Here is a diagram of a regular knitted flower. And also on our website there is a large article with diagrams and photographs just about that - there you will find many different flowers, including roses, daisies, orchids, etc.

HOW TO CROCHET

high booties.

If we continue to knit the boat booties upwards, we will get BOOTS booties. You see, there is no need for any new pattern here... we just continue to knit boats, but in height further in the circle.

The only addition that is often made in high booties is the LAP PART, which is fastened on the side with a button.

Here on coffee boots (master class below) it is shown THE MOMENT OF THE ORIGIN OF THIS LAP on the boots. We're just doing it in the cape chain of air loops- the beginning of the future overlap, and then we simply knit in a straight line (back and forth). That is, having knitted the chain, we turn around and go back along this chain, knitting stitches... and continue this row of stitches along the side of the boat in a circle, through the heel to the second side of the boat and all the way to the toe (where the chain began). There at the toe we turn around and go back - the same way. And so on - row by row, increasing the height of the boot to the level we need.

You can add interesting designs to crocheted booties. Choose beautiful buttons and use fluffy threads to trim them to imitate fur on UGG boots.

You can decorate knitted UGG booties with elegant fringe - cut or looped.

You can make any appliques on the bell of the boots, or decorate the boot with an interesting knitting in the form of leaf scales.

Styles of booties FOR BOYS.

For boys, you can knit men's style booties. Knitted shoes for babies in the form of slip-ons (as in the photo below). If you look closely, we understand that there is nothing complicated here. Just the same pumps - but THERE IS a RISE from the sole.

This rise of the edges from the sole is the moment when we simply knit rows of stitches around the sole (without increasing or decreasing) and therefore these rows RISE VERTICALLY UP and form the edges (with white threads it looks like an imitation of a high rubber slip-on sole).

Here is another style of knitted booties - MOCASSINS. A beautiful male pattern for babies that you can knit with your own hands for boys.

Knitted bootie moccasins can be decorated with a strap with two buttons, as in the photo below.

High borders can be made separately (as in the photo below) - like a strip of posts (4 columns in a row), and then sew it along the edge of the insole - like a high border.

You can come up with your own designs of moccasins or slip-ons for baby boys. Beautiful and simple crochet bootie models for real little men.

Here is a model of booties for boys in the form of sandals. Here the heel part has an extension in the form of a side strap with a button. And the cape front part has a process that bends into a loop, forming a strap into which this strap passes.

The diagram above - DOES NOT BELONG TO BLUE BOOTS - is a diagram of sandals with an open toe (open toes) - but it shows how to knit a high heel and how the strap comes off it.

I love these blue and white sandals with a closed toe. I like that the heel part is knitted separately from the toe part. That is, in turn - first the heel with a long strap, and then the toe, like straight rows of columns - from the right to the left edge of the sole.

BOOTS Crochet booties - with real laces. This type of baby shoes is suitable for both boys and girls. And they are easy to make with your own hands.

Below is the principle by which crochet booties are created.

Crochet booties

SPORTS STYLE.

Now let's see how sports-themed booties are crocheted - crocheted sneakers, sneakers and Converse.

Bootie sneakers consist of THREE PARTS

1. sole with high sides (white threads)
2. heel part with oblique edge (pink threads)
3. toe part with tongue (white, then pink threads)

Here in the photo below we see a detailed step-by-step master class in photographs. It depicts the entire process of knitting and assembling such sneakers.

You can come up with your own design of these crocheted booties and sneakers. Choose your flowers - red, white and black. Yellow-gray-blue. Orange, black and white.

You can make them HIGH (photo above) or LOW (photo below).

You can add sports brand LOGOS to them.

You can CHANGE the DESIGN of your sports shoes.

These are such simple and interesting ways to crochet booties for children. Now you can choose a beautiful model of booties and knit them with your own hands for a girl and a boy.

Openwork booties for beginners

Description of patterns for crocheting booties.

Today, the choice of children's things is so large that it is simply dizzying. Let's talk about the first children's shoes - booties. And this time, after reading the article, you will be able to knit delicate delicate booties for your child.

Booties size by month

Young mothers want only the best for their children - the best toys and clothes. If you are afraid that the booties will not fit your baby in size, then it is quite simple to determine it:

• For newborns, size 16-17 is suitable. In centimeters this is approximately 9.5. This is approximately their size until they are three months old.
• From 3 to 6 months, the length of the foot is approximately 10.5, and this is already size 17-18
• From six months to a year, babies have a foot length of 11.5-12 centimeters - size 19

And you can measure a child’s foot very easily. A ruler or centimeter will help you.

Crochet booties for girls: diagram with description

Young mothers really like booties. There are many variations of them. They can be closed, open, with a button, Velcro or lacing. Before proceeding with the scheme itself, I would like to give a few recommendations:

• As for threads, they should only be natural. After all, synthetic threads can cause allergies
• The size of the booties will be larger if you use a thick hook and thick thread. And, conversely, the thinner the thread with the hook and the smaller the hook, the smaller they will be in size.

Well, now, one of the schemes of these beautiful shoe booties:

• Tie the sole with single crochets (hereinafter referred to as single crochets), leaving 2 chain stitches at the ends.
• After the sole, start creating the upper. Start making the first two rows with 2 air loops. Next, you need to knit half-columns s/n (hereinafter half-st. s/n). Finish rows with connecting loops
• Third row: make an air loop, and then all the columns go next. Finish with the same connecting column
• Fourth: as in the previous 6 rows, knit an air loop. After this there are 9 columns b/n. Next, you will need to connect 2 loops together and thus knit with regular b/n stitches. At the end there is a connecting loop
• Fifth row: knit 1 chain stitch (hereinafter referred to as ch). The next 9 columns need to be knitted with a b/n, and then 8 s/n, but after one
• The remaining columns will be b/n
• The sixth row is the last. All columns of this row must be done without a crochet. And at the end knit 5 connecting loops

There is no need to cut the thread at the end; you must secure it correctly. To do this, cast on 15 to 18 chain stitches and 2 additional ones. Make 1 or 2 rows with half double crochets, and simply fix the end in the other edge of the shoe.

This is how the thread will be secured. For a brighter or more interesting look, the booties can be tied in a contrasting color.

We will knit all subsequent rows without lifting loops.

5 row: Insert a hook into the same base loop, pull out the thread and knit the first single crochet, then knit 1 single crochet into each loop. There should be 56 columns in this row.

We close the row with a connecting stitch in the first single crochet of this row.

6th row: Insert a hook into the same loop of the base, pull out the thread and knit a single crochet, we knit only 2 loops on the hook with a turquoise thread,

In the next loop we knit a single crochet, we knit only 2 loops on the hook with white thread,

In the next loop we knit a single crochet in the same way, tying 2 loops on the hook with turquoise thread,

Thus, alternating the color of the thread, we knit single crochets to the end of the row.

7th row: We knit with a white thread 1 single crochet in each loop (56 stitches).

We close the row with a turquoise thread in the first single crochet of this row.

8th row: We knit with a turquoise thread 1 single crochet in each loop.

We close the row with a connecting stitch into the first single crochet using a white thread.

Row 9: insert the hook into the same base loop and knit the first single crochet, then knit another 17 single crochets,

then we knit 2 double crochets with a common top 10 times, * those. in the next loop we knit a double crochet without tying it to the end, in the next loop we also knit a double crochet without tying it to the end, then we knit 3 loops on the hook together at one time.*

Repeat from * 9 more times. Out of 20 loops I got 10.

in the next loop we knit a double crochet, in the next loop we knit a half double crochet,

10th row: we start knitting the same way as the previous one, knitting 18 single crochets,

above the half double crochet of the previous row we knit a half double crochet, above the double crochet we knit a double crochet,

in the next loop above the double crochet of the previous row we knit a double crochet, in the next loop above the half double crochet we knit a half double crochet,

11th row: knit 18 single crochets,

in the next loop we knit a half double crochet, in the next loop we knit a double crochet,

Next we knit 5 double crochets with a common top, i.e. we knit 5 unknitted double crochets, there should be 6 loops on the hook, we knit these 6 loops at a time, then we knit a double crochet in the next loop, and we knit a half double crochet in the next loop

and we knit 14 single crochets to the end of the row. We close the row with a connecting stitch into the first single crochet.

We knit the next 12th row in a circle, knitting 1 single crochet in each loop. There should be a total of 37 single crochets in this row. We close the row with a connecting stitch into the first single crochet.

Thus, like the 12th row, we knit another 8 rows with single crochets.

After this, we turn the knitting over and knit a row with single crochets, inserting the hook behind the back wall of the loop. In order to make the number of loops in this row even, we knit 2 single crochets into any loop. This row should make 38 single crochets.

We close the row with a connecting stitch into the first single crochet with a turquoise thread and then knit the pattern that we knitted at the very beginning, repeating rows 4 to 8.

We knit the second bootie in exactly the same way.

Booties are the best, practical and comfortable shoes for babies who are not yet walking. Knitting booties is not difficult. Beginning needlewomen can take advantage of a step-by-step master class with a detailed description, photos and videos of crochet.

The choice of yarn depends on the style and seasonality of the booties.

When creating shoes for a small child, you should pay attention to natural yarn or hypoallergenic synthetics:

1. If you need warm winter booties, then it is better to choose soft wool. It should not “bite” or fluff too much in order to be comfortable and safe for the baby. It is worth considering that when crocheting the fabric is thicker than when knitting, so the yarn should not be too bulky. The optimal thickness is 200-400 m/100 g.
2. Has good “winter” properties bulky synthetic yarn(for example, plush or imitation fur). Soft and cozy booties are made from baby acrylic.
3. Suitable for light summer booties cotton based yarn, not strong torsion, with a thread thickness of 300-500 m/100 g. Manufacturers also offer microfiber made from synthetic fibers with properties identical to cotton (for example, Diva yarn).
4. For elegant openwork booties, the best option would be yarn with viscose or silk added. This yarn itself looks decorative, and in an openwork pattern it enhances its beauty and elegance.

Bootie sizes by month

The size (foot length) of booties can be found in the table.

Booties usually take the place of shoes rather than socks, so they should be bulky enough to fit comfortably over rompers or tights.

The length of the sole should be at least 1 cm greater than the length of the child’s foot.

The width of the sole of the bootie is 60% of the length, and the height of the instep is about 30-40% of the length. The cuff should be elastic or have a fastener (often a ribbon is used, threaded along the entire length of the cuff, and brought forward to tie).

Classic baby booties: diagram, step-by-step description

Booties for beginners with a step-by-step description, crocheted with medium thickness in one day. An example of knitting will be considered for size 1-3 months (sole length 10 cm), yarn 250-300 m/100 g. The result is warm, cozy boots with a laconic design. The difficulty level of the work is minimal. These booties are the basis for knitting most other types.

For the sole you need to cast on 10 chain stitches of the base and 3 chain stitches. instead of the first column. Next, knit in a circle (around the base chain), without changing direction, using double crochets.

For the first row, the hook is inserted into the first warp loop (4 from the hook), and double crochets are knitted on all loops. From the last loop (at the turn) you should knit 5 dc. from one loop of the base. Continue knitting on the warp loops, but on the second side (the twist is inserted not under the half loops, but under the bow between the loops of the chain). 5 dc are also knitted from the last loop of the row. turn.

• The first and last columns are connected by a connecting column:
• At the beginning of each row, instead of the first stitch, 3 chain stitches are knitted. Lifting.
• In the second row, on 5 turning columns, the 1st dc is knitted.
• In the third row, on each of the 5 turning columns, 2 dc are knitted. from one loop of the base.

To lift, you should knit 4-5 rows of treble crochets without increasing in a circle. The result is an oval cup. Its volume should be sufficient for the baby’s legs. For a clearer border of the sole of the bootie (for beginning needlewomen it is better to use a diagram with a step-by-step description), the first row of the rise can be crocheted from embossed posts.

Embossed columns require a certain skill:

• To form the toe, further knitting continues on loops of one turn, and 1/3 warp loops (straight stitches) on each side of the turn. They need to be counted. There will be as many rows as there are at the sole.
• At the end of knitting the toe, there should be 5 loops left. To calculate the cuts, the difference between the starting and ending stitches (here 5) is divided by the number of rows. The resulting number of loops must be reduced in each row. To do this, you should knit several dc. into one.
• The remaining 5 stitches are knitted into one. To do this, a crochet hook is inserted into the first loop of the base. The yarn over is knitted, but the stitch is not knitted (a loop remains on the hook). Another yarn over is made and knitted from the second loop of the base. And so 5 times.
• The resulting 5 loops are knitted into one. It turns out 5 columns knitted with one vertex. The result should be a semicircular toe.

The next stage: knitting the top of the bootie: the simplest even for a beginner and does not require a detailed description.

All double crochets are crocheted in a circle to the desired height. The beginning of each row is 3 vp. lifting, at the end there is a connecting post. The work is ready.

Openwork booties

Openwork booties are best knitted from thin cotton yarn. The sole is knitted according to the description suggested above. For thin yarn, the number of initial loops and rows for all elements must be increased in proportion to the thickness of the thread. To knit a bootie rise, it is better to choose an openwork pattern of “shells” or “arches”.

You can knit the rise as in the basic description, and use the openwork to knit the toe and top.

A toe knitted as a separate element will also look beautiful: a flower or a geometric pattern. The top of the bootie usually consists of two elements: a stitch for a decorative ribbon and a row of openwork “shells”. To form a convenient stitch for the ribbon, double crochets are knitted on every second loop of the base, and one chain loop is knitted between the stitches.

Openwork booties are less elastic. It is better for beginning craftswomen to use a step-by-step description of how to crochet a specific model of booties.

In this case, the ribbon will serve as ties, fitting the shoe along the leg.

Booties-slippers

Booties-slippers differ from basic ones in the absence of a top, so even an inexperienced needlewoman can cope with the task. You can simplify knitting a toe (as in the step-by-step description of the basic model) by replacing it with a decorative crocheted element.

To make the slippers safe, you need to sew a leather insole to the knitted sole with the rough side out or embroider several anti-slip elements on the sole with silicone (rubber) thread. Another option for knitted house slippers is prefabricated models of 6 or 8 square elements, sewn according to a specific pattern. This version of booties is the simplest of all.

Knitted sneakers for boys

Knitted sneakers will definitely attract the attention of others: they are original and at the same time practical. Booties-sneakers look more interesting if knitted from yarn of two colors, for example, a light sole and a denim top.

• In order for the sneakers to keep their shape well, it is better to knit them with single crochets or half crochets:
• The sole is knitted with a light thread according to the standard pattern, the thread is secured and broken.
• The rise is knitted with yarn of the main color. The first row of instep is knitted perpendicular to the sole, this creates the effect of real shoes.
• It is better to knit the toe with the main pattern.
• Next, for the tongue, only the loops of the front part of the bootie, which is located above the toe, need to be knitted with a separate fabric. And the fabric of the main part of the sneaker should be started and finished overlapping on the side surface of the nose.
• The sides of the bootie top should almost meet in front to create the clasp effect of a real shoe.

Laces (the laces can be thin ribbons, a tight chain of air loops or braid) can be threaded through the holes of a knitted fabric or knitted along a series of arches of air loops on the sides of the sneaker.

Knitted sandals For light sandals, you should choose thin yarn made from natural fibers (cotton, linen) or microfiber. For such shoes, the sole should be knitted with almost no increase in size, since the light open bootie has an exact fit on the leg. The peculiarity of sandals is that the instep is not knitted with a closed fabric

Having finished knitting the backdrop at the desired height, do not break the thread. Starting from the corner of the backdrop, a chain of air loops is assembled for one strap. To knit a strap in the opposite direction, first make a loop at the end for the button, and then use single crochets to go back along this chain.

Without tearing off the thread, knit a row of stitches along the back to the second side and knit the second strap in the same way. The thickness of the strap should be knitted in straight and reverse rows. You can sew a button on it without a loop. The sock is usually knitted in the form of an arc or a figured element of a suitable size.

Summer booties for girls

Mom can knit booties for special occasions for little princesses herself. You will need elegant yarn, for example with silk, viscose or soft lurex and a suitable hook. It is better to knit in single crochet stitches, so the work will look neater. The shoes must fit well on the feet, so the soles are knitted exactly to size.

To make the booties look neater, the transition to the rise does not need to be emphasized in any way: to rise, simply continue to knit single crochets.

From the 2-3rd row of lifting, you need to start reducing the number of columns in the toe area, 2 columns in each row. The rest of the rise (sides and back) is knitted in a straight line, without decreases. Knitting should be completed when the shoe is the desired height.

To knit a strap, the thread is attached to the side of the heel, and a chain of air loops is knitted so long that it clasps the baby’s leg. At the end you need to make a buttonhole. The strap and backdrop are tied with straight and reverse rows of posts. You need to sew a button on the second corner of the backdrop. Shoes can be decorated with bows or beads.

Winter version in the form of a boot

Warm functional booties can be knitted in the form of boots. The yarn should be chosen bulky, from wool or acrylic. The boot is knitted in the same way as classic booties. Only in this case it is necessary to make a higher boot.

To keep the child warm, the boot should be close to the leg. And to make it comfortable for mom to put on booties, the top of the boot should be either elastic or have a fastener.

Ballet booties

Ballet booties are knitted in the same way as shoes, only without a back and fastener. You need to knit the sole and instep, reducing the number of loops in the front to form the toe. For a better fit on the leg, you can choose elastic yarn (special elastic torsion or with the addition of elastane).

New Year's booties

Bright booties in a New Year's design will be an excellent accessory for a photo shoot. The booties are knitted according to the classic pattern and then decorated.

There are many options:

1. Red or green booties with fluffy white trim, decorated with small white pom-poms.
2. Red or blue booties with snowflake embroidery.
3. Red booties with an applique on the nose in the shape of Santa Claus's face.
4. White booties, decorated in the shape of a snowman. On the upper part you need to embroider a face, and on the lower part (on the nose) sew small dark buttons in a row. Tie the border of the instep and the boot with a mini scarf.

Animal booties

To knit funny booties in the shape of animals or cartoon characters, you need fancy “grass” yarn or other yarn of a suitable texture and appropriate colors. The knitting pattern used is basic. There are no strict rules for implementation; the author's flight of imagination is encouraged.

Hedgehog booties

To knit them you will need medium-stiffness “grass” yarn with a long gray pile. The yarn for the sole and muzzle is acrylic of medium thickness. You will also need eyes and a nose (they can be embroidered with black yarn).
Knit the sole and instep with acrylic yarn according to the pattern for ballet shoes. The boot is “grassed” to the desired height. A nose and eyes are sewn on the muzzle.

Crocodile booties

For crocodiles, smooth yarn of medium thickness is suitable. The sole and instep are knitted as usual. The boot has a “scale” pattern. For the muzzle, you need to sew on the eyes, and embroider 2 nostrils on the nose with black threads.

Teddy bear booties

It is better to knit bear booties in a classic style from plush yarn. 2 small knitted semicircles (ears) should be sewn on the toe closer to the boot. A small circle is knitted from the main yarn or a lighter shade (for the muzzle). It is sewn onto the tip of the toe, adding a little padding polyester for volume. The eyes are sewn on.

You can knit booties from grass yarn with short brown pile. Using smooth yarn of the same color, knit the muzzle and ears and sew on.

Minion Booties

To knit these naughty booties you will need yarn in yellow and blue and leftovers in grey, white and black. You need smooth yarn (cotton or acrylic) with a thickness of 300-450 m/100g. The sole and instep are knitted from yellow yarn. Next, a blue thread is attached and a small cuff is knitted (along the leg).

It is better to make a contrasting blue band around the perimeter of the sole, with several single crochets nearby.

To prevent the binding from tightening the fabric, 1-2 stitches are needed at the corners. Small circles (eyes) are made from white yarn, with glasses next to them in a single crochet in gray or black. You need to sew them to the toes of the booties, and embroider a smile with black thread.

How to safely and beautifully decorate booties?

By decorating even the simplest booties, you can get an elegant, bright and fashionable piece of children's wardrobe. For design you can use ribbons, buttons, appliques, beads. When decorating shoes for a baby, it is important to follow the rule: all elements must be safe (do not have sharp, removable parts). The decor can only be sewn on.

Neither riveted nor glued joints are acceptable for children's clothing.

For boys, you can take figured children's buttons. A sewn-on applique of the appropriate theme will look good. An interesting result can be obtained using the “satin stitch embroidery” technique on a knitted bootie fabric. The technique is simple, even a beginner can do it. You can use any step-by-step embroidery patterns of a suitable size; they look good on crocheted fabric.

Ethnic motifs are at the peak of fashion now. For girls, bows made from grosgrain or satin ribbons can be used as decoration. An ornament made of beads or large beads looks stylish. But embroidery with sequins will not work.
