NWM||crochet baby boots

My warm greetings to the people of this community. I hope you all are doing great and enjoying good mental health. It's been a while.As you guys know I am busy preparing for my exams so I could not crochet anything. But yesterday night my friend came to me and she told me that her best friend baby is 1 month old and she was not able to go to her due to schedule. She told me that she have crochet many things for her baby like a sweater ,cap and many things and she have yet to crochet shoes for him. But she was not in the mood so I agreed. I told her that I was not able to crochet anything so it will be great If I can use hook again. And if there is a particular reason then that is even better.

Till now I have crochet many things but I have not crochet baby boats yet. So it was first time and to be honest it was not difficult and there was nothing new like new stitches and stuff. But I realized that having a proper stitch count while making shoes is really important because if there is any mistake in the stitch count they both will not look the same.

I have mentioned above that she has made sweater and cap so they were black and white that's why I used black and white color to match the other things. I made the sole first with black yarn and then upper part with off white yarn. Mostly the stitch I used is hdc. But in the second third round to make the front part I used dc decrease and dc. And then I did the hdc in the rest of shoe. I think this is very cute and a loving way to express our love to friends. When you realize that the friend you used to have classes with are having their own families and babies you feel really nice. And specially when you gift them something handmade it feels even better. My friend sent baby clothes for her best friend when her baby was born. And her friend was very happy. She asked her to make more things for her. She even offered that she wants to order things and she wants to pay her but she denied saying that her baby is not a stranger and she is aunt to him and he us very special to her.

When the front part of shoe was completed I made the upper part. I did ribbing to make it beautiful. I made a long ribbing so that I can be folded. At the end I added shells as embroidery because I did that to my sister's socks and they looked very pretty. So I did same with the boots.
At the end I added laces because the baby is naughty and he keep loosing his shoes again and again. So in order to lessen the trouble I added laces.

These are final pictures.
I hope you like them 💕💗💞.
See you again 😊 😘.
Take care 🙂 💕.
Bye bye 💞 👋.
