This is a knitting pattern for combination sock and slipper booties. This pattern was designed as a cute, easy way to dress up baby feet. Because they aren’t walking yet, babies don’t need a lot of support in the shoe department. Cute knit socks with cute knit slippers sewn on give the illusion of shoes for dress-up and costumes, but are light and comfy. You can just slip them on and have the whole sock and “shoe” package in one.

The pattern is 10 pages long and includes pictures and detailed instructions for the Ruby Slippers (far left in the top picture) and the Prima Ballerina slipper (second from the right), but because there are a lot of cute things you can do with the pattern I’ve also put together some notes on a few fun variations (including Bewitching Halloween booties, Jingle Bell Rock booties and alternate ballet slippers).

Technically, the pattern requires that you be able to knit, purl, increase, decrease and knit in the round. The ballet slippers require being able to crochet chains and do a provisional cast-on. I do NOT include instructions on doing a provisional cast-on in the pattern. Some simple hand-sewing is needed to assemble the booties.

I can email you the pattern in pdf format (no shipping charge). If you’d like this form of delivery, please let me know and include the email address you’d like the pdf sent to in the message to sender box of your order.

I can also mail you a hard copy printed in color in a plastic sleeve. Please let me know when you place your order and please add $2 to your order total to cover the cost of shipping a hard copy.

Pattern intended for personal use only. Please don’t re-sell or make items to sell from the pattern.

This listing is for the pattern for knitting the booties, not the booties themselves. Drop me a line if you’re interested in some slipper booties, but don’t actually feel like knitting them yourself, as I can totally do custom orders.
