Infant Crochet Sandals

Here's a quick easy infant crochet sandal pattern. It's only for babies that are not walking yet. They attach around the ankle, and over the middle toe. I used a cream cotton yarn for the light color part, and a fingerling weight yarn for the flowers, and a large plastic bead for the flower centers.

Supplies
1 skein cotton yarn
1/4 skein fingerling yarn
2 large eye plastic beads
Large eye needle
Crochet hook size g



 Chain 21, connect with slip stitch. Chain 3 that is the first double crochet. do 5 more double crochet in each corresponding chain.
Flip over do 3 chain crochet in the first chain hole, this will be the first double crochet, do 4 double crochets in the next chain holes.
 Flip over again, chain 3 which will become the first double crochet. Do 3 more double crochet in next 3 chain holes. At the end of the row chain 5, this will be where the baby toe fits. Slip stitch to the end of the row, bind off.
Using fingerling yarn,  make the flower by watching flower tutorial
attach large bead with yarn and sew onto middle of sandal. 

There she is tugging at her crochet sandals.

Knitted Camisole



Since I'm away from the home front, I am limited to what crafts travel well.  I brought my knitting supplies with me, and am eager to put them to good use creating.             
While at my favorite book store Barns and Noble I ran across this silk camisole pattern in Joelle Hoverson book.
The front has a delicate v neck.

The bottom is lacy.
