Booties are for girls, boys, domestic, warm, summer. They are combined with clothes - under a yellow or, let's say, a red suit, cotton, with seals, epiphany, crocheted booties-shoes, booties-sandals. You can enumerate endlessly.

Important Features

The beauty and style of pin-shoes is an indispensable condition, but something else needs to be considered when choosing a model. It is important that they are comfortable, do not move away from the moving legs of the baby. Therefore, consider in advance how the crocheted booties-shoes will stay on the fidgeting. The most convenient model is footwear in the form of a boot with ribbons or laces (for fixing on the legs). In the warm season, booties-shoes are very good. The master class offered below will give an example of fixing on the strap for open pins, so that the legs are comfortable and look beautiful.

Shoes for boys and girls

For future men, the classic version of the pins is suitable, they can be made in the form of sneakers, moccasins or even shoes on laces. Naturally, colors should be chosen for boys, they can be basically any, but avoid pink, bows, ruches. Decorate men's shoes can be appliqué, buttons, embroidery. Now booties-shoes are very popular.

Create for your baby the first booties. With a description for beginners, it will not be difficult. After untying the base, and it is the same for both girls and boys, you can decorate them at your discretion. Believe me, this is very exciting.

Choice of thread for pins

Of course, you need to choose high-quality threads. They should not, in the first place, cause allergies to the baby's skin. It is desirable to take yarn from natural fibers: cotton, merino wool , etc.

In summer variations, cotton weave is ideal, it has good texture, noble shine. Due to the good twisting of this thread, it is possible to bind patterns, they will be clearly visible on the product. Cotton shoes in the summer on the baby will look just wonderful, they can be decorated with straps, ribbons.

More recently, Japanese scientists have developed a new type of yarn - microfiber. It consists of many tiny fibers, united in one strong, elastic thread, pleasant to the touch, does not cause allergies. The main advantage of microfiber is that it keeps the shape perfectly even after a lot of washing. Many needlewomen loved these threads for the fact that they can knit any models of clothing. In the winter it heats, and in the summer gives coolness - an amazing yarn. It will be good if you get a microfiber for knitting pinets.

You can use acrylic, although it is synthetic, but does not cause allergies, it keeps shape well. Heats too bad, is considered an artificial substitute for wool. In addition, threads of acrylic come in a variety of colors.

Hook

It is impossible to say unequivocally what crochet to knit booties-shoes, it is impossible, it all depends on the thickness of the thread, on the desired density of the product. In general, the sizes are from 1.5 to 2.5. When choosing a hook, one rule applies: the thicker the thread, the thinner the hook. For soft shoes the hook is selected according to the size of the yarn, as a result you will get a gentle, rounded shape for your baby's shoes.

Where to begin?

Attached photos will help you figure out how to properly bind booties. With a description for beginners, it will be easier to master the order of execution. Having learned to knit a simple form of a shoe, you can eventually improve your skills by adding a few more pairs of shoes to your wardrobe for different occasions. So, after choosing the yarn and hook, begin to master the step-by-step description of the process to understand how to tie the booties-shoes to your beloved son or daughter. Learning how to weave items for a child is easy, especially if you have at least initial skills in crocheting.

Master Class

In this case, you use acrylic yarn and hook number 2. You can use the yarn you like by selecting a suitable hook to tie booties. The description below will be generalized and serve as an example, and will also raise your creative mood. So, let's begin?

Sole

First, the sole is tied. First we use air loops, we recruit a chain of 15 pieces, 3 of them will be lifted to the next row. We knit the columns around the resulting loops with a crochet, without a crochet, without making the air loops between them.

After tying the first row back to the starting point, to proceed to the next, dial 3 air loops and continue to knit the insole in a circle, so go through 3-4 rows (depending on the thickness of the thread and the density of binding). At each rounding, make an expansion in the form of several air loops. On the entire sole should be only the columns without a crochet, so the base for the shoes will come out tight as necessary. When knitting, do not skip loops, this can lead to a concave shape of the sole.

The resulting canvas should correspond to the child's heel, but do not make the size end-to-end, you can a centimeter or two more. Please note that the baby is growing quickly and wearing shoes will be on a socks or pantyhose. It is recommended to connect two parts at once, they will turn out to be more similar to each other, while you still remember how they knit the first.

Side parts

Now go to the sides of the shoe. Type on the back of the sole 2 air loops for lifting, tie several rows around the entire circumference, but now additions on the rounded parts of the additional air do not need to do, thus the base of the shoe with closed sides will begin to form. Since the children's ascent is usually high, make it approximately to the ankle. You should get a kind of boat with bumps. In the lateral parts, it is possible to start tying the patterns with columns with a crochet, air and other variants. But if in the end decorative ornaments are supposed, then it is possible to tie booties-shoes with usual posts.

Top for the shoe

Take the received boat and fold it in half, determine the middle. The top loosening begins with a set of 13 air loops on one side of the side. You can start and not from the middle, if you need a more open model. Determine for closing only 1/3 part. But then you need to tie up the strap on the rise, so you get real booties-shoes. The top can be linked separately, but it's more difficult to calculate the correct size. And if you knit all together, you can visually guess the size and do not use complex calculations, especially since for the next fitting a small leg is always there.

So, a chain of 13 dialed air (this is an approximate amount) is fixed with the opposite middle part and we continue to knit a sock. Having knitted several rows to the fingers, start decreasing. For this do not bind each row on one loop. By the way, on summer models fingers can not be closed until the end, they will get booties-sandals. So it turned out a semblance of slippers (you can also tie yourself like this, it's very convenient for home). There are a lot of options for tying up the top, and any way that you come up with will be true.

Strap

If you knit from the middle, then the strap may not be needed, they will stay on the leg perfectly. But in the case when the toe cap is closed by a third, then from the middle grab on one side 3-4 loops and tie a length sufficient for the strap. On the edge make a buttonhole (or sew on a piece of Velcro).

Decoration

To decorate shoes, you can make a fantasy, be inspired by ideas, looking at photos with ready-made models of slippers for bunnies. Having learned to make columns with a crochet, you can even decorate booties with tied flowers (more for girls).

Flowers are knitted like this: dial a chain of 20 loops. Knit one column with a crochet, one - with 2 nakidami, further - 3 air loops, and to the end. The next row, knit along the loops, that is, 2 nakida and knit with two nakidami and so on. Thus 3-4 rows are fastened, depending on the size of the flower. Form a flower and sew it, or rather - them (you need two flowers), to booties.

The main thing is to believe in yourself and have the desire to decorate your baby's legs with beautiful first shoes. And if your friends or relatives are scheduled to replenish, then you can give a gift to the birth of a child in the form of a pair of nice pinets.
