Babies and toddlers hate wearing shoes and unless they are in danger of frostbite or burns on the soles of their little feet, they have fewer foot issues if able to go barefoot. But how to dress up those cute tootsies? The latest trend is to just dress the tops.

I had this pattern tumbling around in my head for months before I finally decided to create the design. This is the finished result and the recipients were thrilled.

The pattern has many pictures tutorials. Use crochet cotton, not only is it cooler but it will hold it’s shape better. And it comes in so many colors. Wouldn’t these look wonderful in yellow? A little rose of Texas to be sure.
