Baby shoe pattern

Greetings, all;

I just spent quite a bit of time trying to find a pattern to make
simple shoes for my baby/toddler. Although I did find some patterns,
they weren't quite what I wanted, so I finally ended up drafting my
own.

The shoe this pattern makes is very similar to some of the commercially
available baby shoes with soft leather soles and elastic threaded
around the ankles.

In case someone else is in the same boat I was, I've posted the pattern
and instructions on my website at

If you try this pattern and have comments, I'd appreciate hearing them
so I can refine the article.

That pattern looks good: unfortunately mine are long past the
toddler shoe stage, so I don't think I'll get to try it out.

I love it, its so cute! I haven't tried it yet, and my kids are too old
except the two year old maybe, if she will keep them on lol!

I have lots of friends and cousins who don't have kids yet so this will be
great!
