Hey there, it’s Rachel! If you’re on the hunt for the perfect baby gift or maybe something adorable for your own little bundle of joy, you’ve landed in the right spot! Knit up these snuggly baby shoes using the garter stitch, perfect for those cute baby feet.
Shoe Deets:
These shoes are tailored for babies aged 0-3(3-6, 6-12) months. Depending on the size, the final foot length measures 9 (10, 11)cm. Before you dive into knitting, take a moment to go through the guide!
Materials You’ll Need:
- Yarn: 1 x 50g ball of Elle Premier Natural Cotton 4 ply. Pick your fave color!
- Needles: A pair of 2.75 knitting needles.
- Ribbon: 125 cm of organza ribbon that matches your yarn color, about 1 cm wide.
- Extras: Ribbon Rosebuds (Totally Optional!)
Note: For any abbreviations used, check the abbreviation guide.
Getting the Right Tension:
To get that perfect fit, aim for 28 sts and 48 rows to 10 cm over garter stitch using your 2.75 mm knitting needles.
Pattern Steps (Craft Two Identical Shoes):
Directions are provided for the tiniest size, with adjustments for larger sizes in brackets. When a single figure is mentioned, it’s universal for all sizes. Each shoe is knit as one piece, making the process even simpler!
- With 2.75mm knitting needles, begin by casting on 12(16,20) sts.
- Stay consistent with the garter stitch. Increase 1 stitch at both ends of the needles on the first row and every alternate row after. Keep at it until you’ve got 24(28,32) sts on your needle, wrapping up with an RS row.
- Wrap it up by cutting the ribbon into two equal parts. Fold one ribbon piece and stitch it to the back center of one shoe. Do the same for the other. For an added touch of charm, stitch a line of ribbon rosebuds around the shoe’s upper edge. Voila, your shoes are ready!
