It is necessary
- - yarn - 100 gr;
- - knitting needles;
- - hook.
Instructions
Step 1
Before starting work, take measurements from the child's leg - the length and width of the foot, the volume of the shank. Prepare two knitting needles, crochet hook, yarn. Cast on the needles the required number of loops. Knit a 10x10 cm sample from your yarn and count the number of stitches in one centimeter.
Step 2
Start knitting the cuff, it does not need to be done with a 1 * 1 elastic band, try experimenting. Knit this part of the booties with garter stitch, pearl pattern, or alternate the front with the purl, for example, 6 rows of the front, 4 rows of the purl.
Step 3
The pearl pattern is knitted like this: first row - * 1 sts of persons., 1 sts. *, Alternate to the end of the row, second row - * 1 sts., 1 persons. *, Repeat until the end of the row. Under the purl should be a front loop, and under the front purl loop. Knit the cuffs of the required height, the best option is 5-7 cm.
Step 4
Make holes for the lace. Remove the hem, then knit * two knit stitches together, one yarn over * - repeat to the end of the row. From the seamy side, sew purl loops. The cuff is ready, go to the sock.
Step 5
Divide the knitting into three parts. If the number of stitches you cast is not divisible by exactly three, add the remainder to the middle section. Then you can break off the thread and start knitting right from the middle, or you can leave it, knit from the beginning of the row to the middle and continue with the sock.
Step 6
Knit the middle loops with any pattern, you can choose a multi-colored ornament. The length of the toe should match the length of the child's top foot.
Step 7
The thread can be broken again, or you can continue to work by tying loops along the edge of the middle part. Connect the new loops with those set aside on the additional knitting needles and knit the side of the booties. Alternate purl with knit rows or knit with knit stitch - 6 rows in total.
Step 8
Then move on to making the sole. Divide knitting again, set aside middle stitches. The thread can be broken again, or you can knit from the beginning of the row to the middle and continue working.
Step 9
Perform this part of the booties as follows: at the end and at the beginning of each row, knit two loops together. At the end of the purl row - two purl loops, and at the end of the front row - front. And take one loop from those that were on the additional knitting needle, and another one from the middle part.
Step 10
Continue working until there are six loops on the side sections on each side. Turn out the bootie, sew the remaining loops to the sole, sew the back seam. Prepare the lace - crochet a chain of air loops or twist the thread in several layers. Buy a ready-made ribbon and thread it through the holes knitted on the cuff.
