Reindeer Baby Booties Crochet Pattern
Materials Needed:
- Medium-weight yarn brown for the boot base
- White yarn - for antlers and eyes
- Red yarn - for the nose
- Black yarn for details of eyes
- 4.0 mm crochet hook
- Yarn needle
- scissors
Stitch Guide:
- SC Single crochet: insert hook, yarn over, pull through, yarn over, pull through both loops.
- HDC (Half Double Crochet): Yarn over pull through, insert the hook, yarn over, pull through, yarn over pull through all three loops.
- SL ST (Slip Stitch): Insert hook, yarn over pull through stitch and loop on hook.
- Step 1: Draft the Sole and the Bottom Part of the Boots
Sole of the Boot
- Round 1: Ch 10. SC in the 2nd ch from the hook and across, working 3 SC in the last ch; cont working along the opposite side of the ch, sc across and work 2 SC in the last st. Join w/ a SL ST.
- Round 2: Ch 1, HDC in each stitch around, increasing in each corner to keep the shape oval. Join with a SL ST.
- Rounds 3-5: Ch 1. SC in each st around. Join with a SL ST at the end of each round.
Helpful Hint: Depending on the size of the baby's foot, start this shoe with more or fewer beginning chains.
Step 2: Making the Top Part of the Boots
- Start the Top Section
- Round 6: HDC in each stitch around, join with an SL ST. This is where the shaping of the boot's ankle will be initiated.
- Ribbed Cuff
- Rounds 7 - 10: 2 ch, HDC in back loops only in every stitch around; this gives a ribbed effect. Join with a SL ST at the end of every round.
Why it matters: It is comfortable to wear and makes quite a great fashion statement.
Step 3: Add Details of the Reindeer: Eyes, Nose, and Antlers
Eyes
- Using white crochet yarn, make two little white circles for the eyes.
- Round 1: Magic circle. Crochet 6 SC into the ring. Pull tight and SL ST to close.
- Sew each eye onto the front of the boot.
Nose
- To form the nose, take the red yarn and form a little circle.
- Round 1: Into the magic circle, crochet 6 SC into the ring. Pull tight and SL ST to close.
- Glue the nose on the front of the boot just below the eyes.
Antlers
- White for a default set of antlers. Row 1: ch 7; sc in each st backdown ch.
- 2nd Row: Chain 3 from any stitch across the row, single crochet back down to form a small branch. Repeat once or twice for branches for the antlers.
- Glue one antler to either side of the front of the boot, for a total of two antlers.
Pro Tip: Add a few more stitches through the antlers for a little extra strength.
Step 4: Add Finishing Touches
Details and Assembly Embroider small pupils with black yarn onto the white part of the eyes.
Use a yarn needle to sew all the loose ends in to secure everything.
Creative Tip: Add small bells to these boots or any other holiday charm you like.
