Вязание – одно из самых давних видов needlework. Although there is no evidence in history of when exactly the first thing was knitted and what exactly it was. According to one version, sailors, or rather fishermen, were the first to pick up a bone hook. They used them to repair nets, and since the mesh size of the nets was different, they used different loops to repair them. According to another version, the first knitted items appeared more than 4,000 years ago in Ancient Egypt. This is evidenced by a baby shoe found by archaeologists. No less ancient finds were found in Peru and Greece. There is an opinion that knitting was mastered by different tribes at the same time. This type of needlework came to Europe around the 9th century AD. Three centuries later, it became one of the popular crafts and remains so today. Needlewomen crochet and knit real masterpieces. This can be a lace tablecloth, a designer dress, or a bright, beautiful children's jumpsuit. For those who are just learning to crochet, there are many things that are easy to make. At the same time, they will be no less beautiful than the work of experienced craftswomen and will definitely please both the needlewoman and the owner. This article will offer a master class on crocheting baby booties. These small products are perfect for beginner needlewomen. Their history begins in the 70s of the 19th century. The first creator of children's soft shoes was a Frenchman, shoemaker Pinet. It was his surname that gave the name to shoes for babies, which has survived to this day. Of course, in the Frenchman's workshop, booties were sewn from suede, leather and kidskin, and not crocheted, but the name stuck for all shoes intended for children who cannot walk yet. Booties are knitted mainly from natural yarn: cotton or wool, with the addition of silk, bamboo and linen. For delicate baby skin, it is important that the threads do not prickle and are hypoallergenic. For those who are just starting to learn how to knit, there are several important points. The first is the thickness of the threads and the hook number. Usually, the yarn label indicates which hook to knit with. If for some reason you have threads but no information about the hook, then simply measure the diameter of the hook at the thinnest point near the head. This figure should match the diameter of the thread. Using the thickness of the yarn, you can easily change the size of the booties with the same pattern. The second important point is taking measurements and calculating loops. Small children are unlikely to sit still while you measure their feet, so just trace the baby's foot on a piece of paper. The length is determined by the distance from the heel to the end of the big toe, the width is in the middle of the footprint. Most booties are knitted as follows: first the sole, then the top. The sole is knitted in a circle from the cast-on row of a chain of air loops. In order to find out its length, it is necessary to subtract the width from the length of the foot. For example, the length of the foot is 10 cm, the width is 5 cm, therefore, the length of the chain of ch will be 5 cm. It is also necessary to knit a sample of 10 x 10 cm in order to calculate how many loops are in 1 cm, and how many ch of the cast-on chain must be knitted. If desired, you can also take a measurement of the circumference of the leg.

  • Cotton yarn of white (150 m / 50 g) and brown melange (169 m / 50 g) colors;
  • 2 buttons with legs;
  • Hook No. 2.

The length of the foot in the example is 9 cm.We start working with white thread. We cast on 12 ch + 3 ch p.p. First row. In the fourth loop from the hook we knit 5 dc, then 10 dc, in the last loop of the chain we knit 6 dc and begin to knit 10 dc from the opposite side of the cast-on chain. We finish the row with 1 ss in the 3rd ch p.p. Second row. 3 ch p.p. + 1 dc in the same base loop. Then we knit in the next 5 loops of the first row 2 dc with a common base. Next 10 dc and again in six loops we knit 2 dc with a common base, then 10 dc and finish the circle with 1 ss. Third row. 3 ch p.p. + 1 dc dc into the same base loop, then knit, alternating 1 dc and 2 dc with a common base 5 times. Next 11 dc, and alternate 6 times 2 dc with a common base and 1 tdc, then knit a circle with dc. Finish as before with 1 ss. Fourth row. 3 ch pp + 1 dc into the same base, 2 dc, then knit 5 times (2 dc with a common base, 2 dc), then 10 dc and 6 times (2 dc with a common base, 2 dc), again 10 dc and 1 ss into the 3rd ch pp. Fifth row. 3 ch pp + 1 dc into the same base, 3 tbsp. dc, then crochet 5 times (2 dc with a common base, 3 dc), then 10 dc and 6 times (2 dc with a common base, 3 dc), again 10 dc and 1 ss in the 3rd ch.p.p.How to crochet booties in the form of sneakers, step-by-step photos, diagrams and a detailed description of two variants of knitting pinets for kids. Photo # 2This completes the knitting of our sole.If you need to make it larger, knit the following rows increasing the number of dc between 2 dc with a common base similar to the previous rows. When the sole is knitted, without breaking the thread, move on to the sides. Knit without increases 1 circle of relief concave dc and 1 circle of half dc. Knit the next row with brown yarn sc without increases. And then 2 more circles with white yarn half dc.How to crochet booties in the form of sneakers, step-by-step photos, diagrams and a detailed description of two variants of knitting pinets for kids. Picture №3Let's move on to knitting the toe of the sneaker.To do this, select the central 23 loops on one narrow side. You can use contrasting threads, paper clips or special plastic markers for this. We also knit the row of transition from the sides to the nose with relief concave columns. The first row of the nose: knit with alternating 2 dc with a common top and 1 dc. We got 15 loops. The second row of the nose: knit 2 dc with a common top. We got 8 loops. The third row of the nose: knit all the loops with dc with a common top. Our nose is finished. All that remains is to secure, cut and hide the thread. Now you need to tie the free edge of the nose with one row of sc. This must be done so that when the colors change from white to brown, there is a beautiful and even border.How to crochet booties in the form of sneakers, step-by-step photos, diagrams and a detailed description of two variants of knitting pinets for kids. Photo №4Now you need to attach the brown thread.We fasten it, as shown in the photo, between the two extreme sts of the nose. We knit half-st. d/n to the nose on the other side. We knit all subsequent rows back, half-st. d/n with a brown melange thread, decreasing 2 loops from each edge of the row. To do this, simply knit them together. The girth of the sides of the booties should be slightly smaller than the girth of the baby's foot. In this case, when we lace the sneaker, the lacing will be beautifully visible. If the edges of the sides of the booties close tightly on the foot, all the beauty will be lost. Another important point will be the height of the booties. If it turns out to be low, it will constantly slide off the baby's foot. The ideal option would be a height above the ankle. Then, thanks to the lacing, the booties will tightly clasp the foot. For booties with a 9 cm sole, 8 - 9 rows should be enough. We secure the thread, cut it off and hide it.How to crochet booties in the form of sneakers, step-by-step photos, diagrams and a detailed description of two variants of knitting pinets for kids.

In order to lace the sneaker, we thread our lace through the sides, between the half-dc. This can be done not for the outer ones, but for the second or even third half-dc from the edge. The sneaker is ready, all that remains is to decorate it. Knit with a white thread. Cast on 8 ch. and close into a ring. 3 ch. p. p. and 16 dc into a ring. Now tie with a “crayfish step”.
