This blue jingles bootie is probably among my very favourites. It’s happy in its vibrancy and joyous in its jingles! 😀

Another new pair of baby booties in red & white just popped out at me last night. (Who needs sleep right?) Below are some clear pics of the baby booties. For those interested in making your own (booties – you know how to make babies without instructions already!), I have included some links to charts and instructions.

The following Soles Crochet Chart can be used when making crochet baby shoes or booties. I have used this chart with Clover 4/0 (2.5mm) crochet hook and suitable yarn to create soles of about 9-10cm long – which is suitable for babies between 0-6months old.
If you use different sized hook or yarn, then obviously the sizing will vary. This is but one method or pattern for creating the soles for baby shoes/booties.

“Picture Crochet” (my term) is crocheting with beads to form specific images or pictures. Here I will go through some of the how-to and suggestions in using picture crochet to create cuff bracelets.

Finger Crochet is crocheting with your fingers; no crochet hook needed. I love the finger crochet cord because they are very versatile and has, to me, a intriguing and professional finish.
Finger Crochet Cord – How To
Yesterday I posted about the free Crochet Chart software and pointed you to where you can get it. Since then, I have spent a number of hours playing around with it. And sadly discovered it has a bug. An image bug.
It is great that this newest version has the ability to allow you to insert an image. I do need that for graphing my crochet stitches into colours (for doing beaded crochet). However Crochet Chart has an image bug – where, once inserted, the image becomes “stuck”. You cannot select, move, edit, or even delete it! No good!
But the good news is I have found a workaround. After many hours, let me say. So if you are interested, you can find how to workaround the image bug in Crochet Chart software.
