Crochet Lion Baby Booties

Create these adorable crochet lion baby booties with this easy cute pattern! So fun to make and look absolutely darling on little feet!

The pattern is written in newborn, 0-6M, 6-12M and 12-18M sizes, just change the hook size to change the size!

How to make your booties not slip:

I get this question a lot and have a couple solutions I think work really well:

  1. Puff paint. Squirt little dots or lines of puff paint on the bottoms. Turn them upside down and let them dry overnight before use.

 

 2. Clear plasti dip spray. This is my preferred method as it works really well and just sprays on. Be sure to do this outdoors. Spray the bottoms and let dry overnight before use.
