I thought this pattern would be idea for a beginner student of mine to do. However, I found several mistakes in it plus, the big fact is that there is no directions to close the instep. I did not realize this when I passed the patten on to my student. The poor woman was practically in tears because she thought she was doing it wrong and kept ripping and starting over again. Last time I pass on a pattern before i crochet it myself. Very unhappy.

I make booties and slippers for my family all the time. Put "Puff Paint" in a circular design on the soles to make them non-slip for walkers and older toddlers. Your babies will love them!

Help! I'm looking for a baby bootie pattern that is very small size. It will be used as a baby shower favor. I'm having a hard time copying the pattern for the very small bootie I have, and so I'm seeking a pattern for it. Total size in length is 3 inches or less. Maybe you could call it preemie size, I hope that doesn't offend anyone.
