Neon Trim Baby Slippers – Free Crochet Pattern

Hello friends!  I’m back today with another baby shoes pattern for all of you!  As I said in yesterday’s post, I don’t know what’s gotten into me!  I can’t help but continue to make more and more little baby shoes.  I’m making so many to the point where I don’t even know what I’m going to do with all of them!  The baby in our house can only wear so many shoes at a time…

So, these little shoes are similar to my previous pattern but I’ve added a pop of color to them – just for fun!  Below is the pattern and tutorial for you to follow.

Materials

• Lightweight Yarns in grey and neon colors (I used light heather grey, strawberry pink, bright teal, and royal purple in mine.)
• Crochet Hook size G (4.00MM)

Shoe Sole

Round 1:  Using neon color yarn, Ch 10, sc in 2nd ch from hook, 1 sc in next 7 chs, then 5 sc in last ch.  Working back from the other side of your chain, 1 sc in next 7 chs, 2 sc in last ch.  Sl st to beg sc.  (22 sts total)

Round 2:  Ch 2, hdc in same st, 1 hdc in next 7 sts, 2 hdc in next 5 sts, 1 hdc in next 7 sts, 2 hdc in last 2 sts.  Sl st to beg ch-2.  (30 sts total)

Round 3:  Ch 2, hdc in same st, 1 hdc in next 12 sts, 2 hdc in next 3 sts, 1 hdc in next 12 sts, 2 hdc in last 2 sts.  Sl st to beg ch-2.  (36 sts total)  Tie off and weave in ends.

Shoe Sides and Toe

Now you will start to work in actual rounds, as in, you will no longer sl st at the end of each row and begin a new row.  Once you come to the end of a round, you will make your next st ON TOP of the st from the previous round in a continuous manner.  It is helpful to use a stitch marker to help you mark the beginning of each round.  For me, I use a safety pin!

Round 4:  Change to grey yarn, Ch 2, 1 hdc all around.  (36 sts total)

Round 5:  1 hdc in each st all around (36 sts total)

Round 6:  1 hdc in next 12 sts, dc2tog 6 times, 1 hdc in last 12 sts (30 sts total)

Round 7:  1 sc in next 12 sts, dc2tog 4 times, 1 sc in last 11 sts.  (28 sts total)  Tie off and weave in ends.

Trim the Shoe

Round 8:  Change back to neon color and work in back loops only.  Sl st into each back loop st all around.  Tie off and weave in ends.

Bow:  Use the same color yarn to tie a simple bow to the top of the shoe.  You’re done!  Yay!

Here are some more photos of the shoes in different colors.
