Crocodile booties are most often crocheted. But not all needlewomen work with crochet. And what to do if you really like this model of booties, and the descriptions are like
very little? We will combine several knitting techniques: a separate pattern called “scales” and basic knitting
. Knowing how a simple basic model is made, you can safely experiment with the styles and decoration of shoes.







For children's knitting there is a specialyarn. Usually its name contains the word Baby. It is hypoallergenic, very soft and gentle to the touch. The main component in such yarn is acrylic or cotton, and natural wool, despite the fact that it is very warm, often causes irritation to delicate sensitive skin. If you still want to work with natural wool, then choose expensive high-quality yarn, for example, alpaca or cashmere, or mixed threads (wool + acrylic, mohair + acrylic).
For booties with this name, yarn of any shade of green is suitable; sectional dyeing thread with smooth color transitions looks especially beautiful.
To work you will need a set of stocking needles,suitable for the selected yarn in size. You can take a tool one or two sizes smaller, so the booties will be tighter and warmer. If the tool is larger, the product will become more loose and airy.

We knit cuffs with "scales"

The Crocodile cuff is made in the form of scales, hence the name of the model of pinets. The pattern looks like the photo.

Below is a detailed diagram of this pattern.
The cuff can be made on two knitting needles, thenyou will need to make a connecting seam at the back. Or you can use stocking needles in the circle, in which case read the diagram only in one direction - from right to left.
In this example, the cuff is knitted on two needles.Cast on a number of stitches that are multiples of 8 + 2 edge stitches. When calculating the number of loops, keep in mind that this fabric practically does not stretch, so cast on with a small margin so that the leg passes easily.


First row - first the edge (remove it inthe beginning of each row), then purl all the loops (hereinafter referred to as IP). In the second, alternate knit stitches (hereinafter referred to as knit stitches) and yarn overs. We start the third by “dropping” the yarn overs (hereinafter H), and knitting the loops (hereinafter P).
Fourth row - we knit seven Ps together IP.If you are knitting very tightly, you can use a crochet hook to pull the thread through the seven loops. Now we knit 7 from the next P. To do this, you need to insert the knitting needle into the P, pull out the thread, make a yarn over, again LP, N, LP, N, LP and only now “throw off” the loop from the left knitting needle. And again seven together. Continue this way until the edge. A number of “scales” are ready! From the fifth to the seventh rows we repeat the work from the beginning. In the eighth, you need to change the order of the “scales” so that they are arranged in a checkerboard pattern. To do this, first we knit 7 P from one, and then we will knit the next 7 IP together.
Knit as many rows as you need for the cuff and bind off all the loops.

It is also convenient because the cuff, connected separately, can be absolutely any, with any decor, pattern or pattern. And already from it you type a loop, from which you get a shoe.

From our "scaly" cuff we type loops from four sides. On one spoke we knit a toe with a plaiting or pearl viscous to the size of the leg.

Now we will type the loops on the sides of the toe, their number depends on the number of dialed rows. We knit 10 rows in a circle.

The sole is knit, continuing to work on the spoke, whereThe toe is located. Loops located on the side spokes, we are tying in each row together with those that are on the central. Continue until until all sides are closed.
