Baby Shoes

At long last, it is time to unveil the latest crochet project...


Crocheted baby Converse shoes!

In honor of my brother and sister-in-law's newest addition (who could realistically arrive any day now), I decided to finally try this pattern. (You'll probably need a ravelry account to download the pattern; it's not posted online anywhere that I know of.) It was a bit trickier than I am used to - well, okay, not really trickier, but it's very different crocheting shoes than it is plushies. For some reason shoes are more daunting. But I'm pretty happy with how they turned out, overall. I left off the little star medallion on the sides because when I tried it, I didn't like how it looked (even though the pictures online make it look really awesome), but other than that I followed the pattern almost exactly.

The real question is: how long will they actually fit the baby once s/he arrives?
