Greetings, all;

I just spent quite a bit of time trying to find a pattern to make
simple shoes for my baby/toddler. Although I did find some patterns,
they weren't quite what I wanted, so I finally ended up drafting my
own.

The shoe this pattern makes is very similar to some of the commercially
available baby shoes with soft leather soles and elastic threaded
around the ankles.

In case someone else is in the same boat I was, I've posted the pattern
and instructions on my website at

http://www.tackyliving.com/article.php?id=121

If you try this pattern and have comments, I'd appreciate hearing them
so I can refine the article.

That pattern looks good: unfortunately mine are long past the
toddler shoe stage, so I don't think I'll get to try it out.

Excellent detail!! only problem I had was when I went to print it out, I
lost half the text (off edge of page) and had lots of blank on the other
side.I will try this pattern...........Amelia in Australia

You make a good point. Would it be more convenient for everyone if I
rescaled the pattern so that all of the pieces fit on one sheet of 8
1/2 x 11" or A4 paper?

I appreciate all of the comments people have taken the time to write.
If one of you does try this project and runs into problems, let me
know.

I'd also enjoy seeing any shoes people make. 8>)

BTW, for those who are looking for a simpler pattern, one that's
unlined and doesn't use a casing and is probably ok for kids who aren't
walking, there's a bootie pattern at:

I love it, its so cute! I haven't tried it yet, and my kids are too old
except the two year old maybe, if she will keep them on lol!

I have lots of friends and cousins who don't have kids yet so this will be
great!

Thanks!
