Crochet Baby Bootie - Part 2

[badazz82]

i am soo new to crocheting and this is the first thing im attemtping to do. i understood everything until i got to the top part for the toe ..decreasing???? but still keeping the same number of double stitches ...im so lost help please if you can

[MaxnIrma]

I am working on the Baby Booties now to match the little dress. You make it so easy when one can follow along with you. I never heard of the chainless half double crochet until I did the baby dress. I just love that way of making a chain and it's so easy to do. You are awesome.

@MaxnIrma Thank you. I am a big fan of the foundation stitches. I have all 3 posted on my second channel in detailed slow motion

[MaxnIrma]

I love your tutorials, they are wonderful. I just made my first baby dress using the solomons know and it turned out beautiful. I too have a time working with written material sometimes and you're video's make it so much easier. Your patience and guidance is amazing! Thank you Thank you Thank you.

[tjw1963]

@TheRalfilandia Gracias! Estoy feliz de que está aprendiendo. Le agradezco el comentario!

[Leslie30510]

I cannot figure out how you decrease. I have watched your video about 6 times and I still cannot figure out what you are doing. Can you please explain as I am stuck with my base and my nine double crochets but can go no further, Help please!

[ZZcript1]

hi la verdad no se ingles hojala puedas hacer tus videos tambien en español te lo agradesco adios

[amazedChil]

@ZZcript1

No necesitas saber inglés. Los videos de Teresa muestran cada detalle. Busca los videos para "Beginners". Ahí enseña a hacer desde el nudo simple para empezar la cadeneta.

Saludos.



[spoiledtinker11]

can I just say WOW! You are so awesome! I scared away from your vid the minute you said double crochet, but I paused learned the stitch and watched (numerous of times) and I got it! The bootie isnt finished yet bc I havent started the part 2 yet. But im impressed how far I have gotten. I can't read patterns (trust me I tried even though I know all of the crochet lingo but as soon as i read it looks like a foreign language! Your videos are awesome. I am now a subscriber!

[tjw1963]

@spoiledtinker11 Thank you!

[Yomalex3]

I love crocheting. My mom taught me when I was about 12 or so. I love it cause it's relaxing but I have always made simple things like blankets and scarfs. Your video helped me learn to make booties lol. Also I sat and watched ur video cause I found it very relaxing. Not sure if its the motion or ur voice but I like this one more than others Ive seen which just show u a few chains and then skip to th next part.

[tjw1963]

I appreciate the comment, thank you. :)

[mypnut429]

how can i make the bootie smaller..like with the chains..u crocheted 14 chains in the begining..can i crochet a smaller number so it can come out smaller?

[tjw1963]

Yes, you can modify the pattern for less starting chains and apply the same stitches for the rounded ends. It will be shorter. The same would be for the tongue and edging. Just make less of everything. It will all work together. Maybe you want to try a test bootie first. Sometimes I will think that something should work but it does not turn out so well.

[luthenia2233]

How did you attached the yarn when you started the top of the booty. I dont know how to do that, can you show me please?

[tjw1963]

That is a good idea since out of all the video's I have posted, I do not have a detailed vid on attaching yarn.

[smartbamboo]

Hi Teresa!

I need your suggestion! My friend is pregnant, but the gender is kept seceret. I actually want to gift her some crochet tops.. What type of tops can i make which can be perfect for both baby girl & baby boy..

I would appriciate it! :)

[tjw1963]

You can make T-shirt type tops or onsies. There are a lot of interchangalble clothing for infants.

[melagal89]

hi teresa.. i get so confused how you do the decreasing.. at like 4:22 how do you do that?!? I have no idea

[tjw1963]

Decreasing is joining 2 stitches together, reducing it down to 1. I have a video on decreasing and the decrease section of this booty in slow motion.

[inbarawa]

Hi Teresa, thanks once again i would just want to ask you, the second row of 46 dc shall i still use only the one loop as the previous 46dc row which you have illustrated that.

[tjw1963]

I go through both loops after that round.

[vstar4us]

Thank you so much for your videos. I made my first pair of booties! I also learned how to make the baby beanies which I now donate to the local hospital's neonatal units. Can you do a video for the thumbless mittens for the babies? (just an idea)

Thanks again. I find it so easy following your video vs. written patterns.

[tjw1963]

You are welcome. I have a video in the process of being made for thumbless mittens. I should have it up early this week.

[angelnbella]

hi my name is selene

and i will like to know if you have a video on how to make man slippers on size 8 because i have seen patters but i dont really understand it but the videos help me a lot. well thanks hope to hear from you. have a nice weekend bye.

[tjw1963]

The slipper I just posted can be altered in size to fit a man.

[way2crazy94]

In any part of this video did you skip any stiches? Because when you were on the top part of the booty it looked like you were skipping a lot of space.

At about 7:50-8:50, were you joining the two sides toghther?

[tjw1963]

I didn't skip any stitches. I joined the two sides together to form the top section of the booty.

[cindylauperdude]

hi i am a 14 year old guy my grandmother taught me to crochet when i was 6 so 8 years and it would be really helpful to me if u could show us how to end a row on an afghan and start another?Thanks Also U ROCK i love the booties and your videos are SO EASY to follow thanks comment back plz

[tjw1963]

Thank you, I will keep that in mind. :)

[harryhammie]

i like these booties but your double is out treble UK different stitches is, the pattern you are following did you make up or did you follow a pattern.

[tjw1963]

I made it up.

[harryhammie]

i am from england and your double is our treble would that make a difference

[tjw1963]

If you can decipher the stitches so that they are the same, then it should not make a difference.

[grammi24]

Thank you so much for this video. Whenever I made booties, they always grew to double the size I wanted to make,now by watching this video, I can get the exact size.  Thankyou so very, very much.

[tjw1963]

You are welcome. If you need to make them smaller, just use a smaller hook, like a D hook or E hook.

[tjw1963]

I have posted a Booty Toe Decrease- Slow Motion video. The link is to the right of this video in the video details.

[anishayunus]

hi....iam working on this booty...ane being a fresher, struck up on the decrease part... can u explain it for ne pls?

[tjw1963]

I have a video tutorial on decreasing which might be more helpful. Decreasing is joining two double crochet together at the top, which will decrease it down to one double crochet. When you crochet over it the next round, the joined double crochet is crocheted over the same as an individual double crochet.

[angiejoe123]

can it be use as a slipper just like this with out crocheting part 3?

[tjw1963]

I have never done that before. If it were me, I would ask how practical that would be. Babies = wiggly. Socks, shoes and booties come off. Do you plan on doing some sort of tie? Making it smaller so it is tighter and won't come off. Other than those two thoughts, it is something you could make work with some minor alterations and will be cute. Play around with the pattern and see what you come up with. The written instructions are posted on my crochet blog

[kch1975]

pls share baby booty part 3 ...would appreciate ur efforts
