Materials Needed

• Medium weight (worsted) yarn in light blue and cream
• 4.0 mm (G) crochet hook
• Scissors
• Tapestry needle (for weaving in ends)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Start with the cream yarn: Make a magic ring and work 6 single crochet (sc) stitches into the ring. Pull tight to close the ring.
2. Round 1: Work 2 single crochet in each stitch around. You should have a total of 12 stitches at the end of this round.
3. Round 2: *1 single crochet in the next stitch, 2 single crochet in the following stitch* - repeat this pattern around. You will have 18 stitches at the end of this round.
4. Round 3: *2 single crochet in the next stitch, 2 single crochet in the following stitch* - repeat this pattern around. You will have 24 stitches at the end of this round.
5. Work even: Continue to work in single crochet for 6 rounds without increasing. This will form the body of the bootie.
6. Change to light blue yarn: Switch your yarn to light blue to create the contrasting color for the bootie.
7. Round 10: *3 single crochet in the next stitch, 2 single crochet in the following stitch* - repeat this pattern around. You will have 30 stitches at the end of this round.
8. Work even: Continue to work in single crochet for 4 rounds without increasing. This will add height to the bootie.
9. Create the ribbed cuff: Switch to back loop only (BLO) single crochet for the next 4 rounds. This will give the bootie a lovely ribbed texture.
10. Finish: Complete the bootie with a slip stitch to join and cut the yarn, leaving a long tail for weaving in.
11. Make the bow: With the cream yarn, chain 20. Single crochet in the 2nd chain from the hook and across. Fold the chain in half and tie the center with a small piece of yarn to create the bow shape. Attach the bow to the booties using a tapestry needle.
12. Repeat: Follow the same steps to create the second bootie, ensuring both booties match in size and style.
