Crochet: Baby Flower Sandals Pattern

I finally finished these adorable baby girl sandals. I used Whistle and Ivy's pattern for Bitty Bow Baby Sandals but chose to add a flower embellishment to the top instead of the bow.

They are for sale on my Etsy shop or you can make them by following the pattern provided.


Here is the pattern for the flower and leaf, if you choose to add those to the top instead:

Leaf:
I used Caron Simply Soft Acrylic Yarn  and a 4mm hook
1. Ch 10.  dc into 3rd chain from hook, htr into next ch, tr into next ch, htr into next ch, dc into next ch, hdc into next ch, sc into last 2 ch.  (You should have run out of chain here)
2. Make picot by ch3, slst into 3rd ch from hook.
3. Now working along the opposite side of the leaf, sc into first 2ch, hdc into next 2ch, dc into next ch, htr into next ch, dc into the next ch, sc into last ch.
4. Fasten off and leave a nice long tail to sew your leaf onto whatever you are embellishing.

 Flower:
Make magic ring (photo tutorial)
1. 15 sc in magic ring, pull tight, slip st in first sc
2. Chain 4, *skip 1 sc, dc in next sc, ch 1, repeat from * 6 more times. Join with slip st in 3rd chain of first ch 4. Tie off color.
3. Join new color to first chain loop with a slip stitch, work sc, dc, trc, dc, sc in each ch 1 loop, making eight petals, slip stitch in first sc.
