We will knit the booties using only two knitting needles.And their main pattern will be on the toe. And this pattern is called "Zephyr". At first glance, it may seem that such booties are knitted for a long time and are not easy. But in fact, this is not so. These booties are knitted very easily and very quickly. Even those who are just starting to knit can handle them.To work on booties we need:

Spokes;
yarn of two colors;
needle;
two buttons.

Our booties will be designed for the mostsmall children - newborns. Therefore, they will be very small. If there is a need to knit larger booties, then you need to cast on more loops on the knitting needles and make the pattern on the toe larger too. First, we need to cast on twenty-five loops on the knitting needles. Our booties will be of two colors. The first and main color is lilac. And for the pattern, we will take mint. You can take any other colors for knitting such booties. You can even knit them in one color.And now we will knit them with garter stitch.Each new row will be knitted only with face loops. But the last one should be knitted with the back side, since it is an edge loop. And at the very beginning of the row we will always remove the first loop without knitting, since it is also an edge loop.We knit forty-nine rows in total.And in the fiftieth we will close the loops and move on to knitting the "Marshmallow" pattern. In total, we need to close ten loops. To do this, we will knit together two loops from the knitting needle. And we return the resulting loop back after knitting. Again, we knit two loops together and again return the loop back. So we close ten loops. We will not knit these ten loops anymore. And we will continue to knit the remaining loops.And now we attach a thread of a different color.In this case, it is the color of mint. And we can already tear off the lilac, since we will not need it in knitting any more. We knit the row with mint threads to the end with face loops.Now we knit another row in the opposite direction.knit. And the next row will be purl. And another row knit. Next we knit a row knit, a row purl, a row knit and a row purl. That is, we knit stripes, one of which will be completely on the front side of the booties purl loops, and the second knit. Each strip consists of four rows.And in total we knit six such stripes. These stripes do not have to be knitted in one color, you can also take white, for example.Now we place one side on the other and sew with a regular needle with a large eye.Straighten it out well and fold the bootie in half. And sew the bottom. This is how we will make the sole. Now we need to tighten the top to form the toe. To do this, thread the needle and pass the needle through one loop in each of the twelve stripes.Now we pull it very tightly. We tie a knot. We hide the thread and cut off the excess.We turn our booties inside out.And just straighten them out. Also, to make them look even more interesting, we will sew on a lilac button with a mint thread. Or you can crochet some beautiful flowers or bows. They will also look beautiful on such booties. You can also take some beads as decoration. In general, you can decorate them with anything. Or you can even not do this, since they are already decorated with a pattern. These are the booties you get on two knitting needles! Despite the fact that they are very easy and quick to knit, such booties look very unusual and beautiful.
