I've realised that my knitting has a bit of a pattern. I like to alternate working on a new pattern, and then for a bit of a relax I return to one of my own old patterns. So I've been chilling for a bit and knitting from my baby shoe pattern.
I've also been having a lot of fun with the embroidery. I've called these ones Summer Meadow Shoes. Can you see the cow parsley, cornflowers, buttercups and daisies? Although very fiddly to stitch I hope I have given the impression of a summer field.
The second pair of shoes are decorated with a cornfield. This time there are scarlet poppies, deep blue cornflowers, cow parsley and daisies amongst stems of yellow corn.
Both pairs are in the smallest size, so would be for a newborn. The pattern comes with details for a larger size too. They come in a little dupion silk drawstring shoe bag.
The embroidery makes them really special:) Vicky

Amazing what details you pick out on such a small scale. I had knitted booties to keep my babies' tootsies warm (they rarely slipped off). Could have done with your lovely embroidery! :)

Oh my, they are so cute and tiny! Adorable!
ReplyDeleteAdorable little shoes, but how do the babies keep them on? Is there a strap?
ReplyDeleteNo, they come quite far up the foot, and just fit on like little socks.
DeleteYour embroidery is exquisite. Yes, you do give each pair the spirit that you are trying to convey!
ReplyDeleteThose are the sweetest I've ever seen! Thanks for the embroidery inspiration. I can see using some on a simple cardigan.
ReplyDeleteAdorables !
