Some more baby shoes. These ones I have called Bug Shoes. I have knitted with this wool before, and just love all the different shades in it. I have no idea where it came from, and am a bit sad I only have the tiniest bit left. The bugs were my daughter's idea, at least the ladybird on the leaf. Then I thought it would be rather cool to have a different bug on the other shoe. I'm not sure that caterpillars are considered quite as cute, but I really like them, and it had to be something really small to fit on the shoe.
My neighbour told me this morning he has a few snowdrops in his garden. So for the last pair I have made a new pair of Snowdrop Shoes. Previously I have made these in yellow and green, but I thought a light blue would look good and wintery.
These shoes are all knitted from my Baby Bee Shoe pattern, and are off to my Etsy shop. Although the embroidery may look tricky, there are tutorials for all the stitches you need in embroidery corner in my right sidebar.
These are just gorgeous. All of them. I am big into booties and am starting to add flowers to mine, but like your idea of bugs etc. Very cute! Visiting from www.annatestadoro.com
ReplyDeleteOh oh so cute! can just imagine them on little baby feet :)
ReplyDeleteWhat adorable booties!! I really need to knit some as I am expecting a niece in a few months. You do beautiful work :-)
ReplyDeletesooooo sweet! Gosh I love these! The colours (what is the pink yarn, may I ask?), the pattern, you clever lady! :) Chrissie x
ReplyDeleteI am pretty sure the pink yarn is Rowan Cotton Glace Colour 747, though it was in some left over wool I was given by my sister, so I don't have a label to check.
DeleteI love the pink and blue shoes. So sweet.
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say? They are all the cutest:) as always I admire your work!
ReplyDeleteSo lovely!!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful booties! You are so clever. I've crocheted in the past and enjoyed it; however, my attempt at knitting didn't go very well. Maybe I'll attempt it one more time.
ReplyDeleteThis is my first time participating in Saturday Snapshot, and I'm enjoying the variety of photos that people post.
Amazing. You must have so much fun with this.

They are so cute, as always, I think my favourite is the soft pink colour.

I adore your little booties!
ReplyDeleteI like all the shades but my favourite is the pinky purple variegated yarn - my favourite colours! They are very cute baby shoes. x
ReplyDeleteThese are so gorgeous. I love the bumblebee ones!
ReplyDeleteI've just started a huge sponsored knit (which is especially challenging as I can't knit & am having to learn as I go!)
The blue looks lovely with the snowdrops, it makes them really stand out. Your bugs are brilliant (well done to your daughter)

What lovely baby shoes. A good idea of your dd to suggest a ladybird, adds a touch of colour.
ReplyDeleteThey are all so gorgeous! I love the idea of having a different bug on each shoe, the caterpillar is fab. I agree the pink you've used with the bees is very pretty and they are so enchanting with the sprig of blossom. Blue is the perfect backdrop for the snowdrops, it really captures the frosty chill of late winter when they start bravely poking above ground :) x
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful creations. I admire your embroidery skills. These little booties are too adorable.
ReplyDeleteI am loving each and every one of these slippers. All of your embellishments give each one a unique beauty.
ReplyDeletelove the lil bees :) again amazing work x
ReplyDeleteYour creations are always so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your tutorial on Tutorial Thursdays Linky Party this month.
I look forward to seeing you again in the next month's linky.
