Blingy Sandals
What’s cuter than baby toes? Baby toes in cute sandals! These simple sandals are a great base pattern that you can embellish in so many ways. The simple styling makes them perfect for boys or girls. Add rhinestones, beads, bows or leave them plain. I’ve also given you two different ankle strap styles!
I designed them in #4 cotton worsted yarn, such as Lily Sugar n Cream, Red Heart Creme de la Creme or Premier Home Cotton, but I’ve also had good success with acrylics such as Red Heart Super Saver. They work up very quickly and the color combinations are almost endless — great for using up scraps of yarn!
