Crochet Booties - "Floorboard Booties"

"Floorboard Booties" - keep toes warm & clean floors!

Continuing my journey from “Lessons from my first Crochet Booties“, this next pair of booties now has much thicker soles and has narrower soles. The narrower soles creates a snuggier, firmer fit.

This is not a full tutorial. It is more of a guide and pointer lesson – what worked and what needs improvement. As far as the booties are concerned, I am very much in the experimental stage.

Lessons from my first Crochet Booties

Having moved into our new home of wooden polished floors, I was eager to try out some crochet booties. I checked out patterns, instructions, YouTube videos for tutorials on how to make a boot. Ultimately the only way to get a grasp on the real how-to is just to make one.

So this here is my first ever bootie – a crochet bootie. It is what I call a working draft. Its main purpose is so that I can see and feel what the real thing looks like. Wear it, work it, and find out that way what needs to be adjusted – and then make a better one (later/one day!)
