And she wanted a pair of booties to match some of the hats I had made him.
These have since become the booties I am requested to make the most!
As they are cosy and STAY on babies’ FEET!

The 10-minute bootie pattern is a quick and easy project that can be crocheted in no time.
The finished booties make great baby items to gift for a newborns, or as some have used to place in a box and sell as completed booties at markets and on etsy.
They are also ideal for using up extra leftover yarn.
Wondering what you can crochet for a new baby?
You can crochet baby booties in no time — these 10-Minute Booties are my absolute go-to pair. Quick, simple, and always adorable.
If you’re pairing them with a baby hat, I’ve got two great options:
- Try this Baby Hat with Earflaps Crochet Pattern – it’s cozy and snug.
- Or, for something even faster, the Easy Ribbed Baby Hat works up super quickly and looks great with the booties.
Whenever I need a matching set, especially if a new mom requests both a hat and booties, these are the ones I reach for every time.
I have included several step-by-step pictures to help you crochet these adorable little booties.
Once you have made them once they are so quick to whip up.
And now I have included a VIDEO tutorial over on Youtube to crochet the booties for those who prefer visual learning!
Video Tutorial – How to crochet the 10 minute Booties
I am new to video making, so please be gentle. But I would LOVE to hear your feedback on how to improve. I do not speak! My broad Scottish accent is hard to understand at times (so I have been told on many occaisions) and as crochet terminology is such universal speaking language! I have chosen to write the instructions across the screen
I can confirm these booties are the BEST and most favorite of a newborn mom; my daughter, who recently gave birth to my grandson, LOVED these booties.
How big should crochet baby booties be?
Newborn Booties Sole should measure Approximately 3.5 inches
0-3 months Booties soles should measure approximately 4 inches
I find these little crocheted booties have great stretch in them to help easily pop the booties onto the little one’s feet, especially when they are wearing the all-in-one suits that have feet on them.
Please read Special Terms and NOTES BEFORE commencing Pattern
NOTE: You will need some extra SAME colored yarn to Join AND make the Toe area
It is ONLY EASY to crochet these baby booties quick IF you know how to:
- Work several double crochet stitches together (16 dctog)
- FPHDC = Front post half double crochet
- BPHDC = Back Post Half Double Crochet
SPECIAL NOTES FOR CREATING THE TOE/ instep AREA: You will use a seperate length of yarn to crochet the toe area
FOr the TOE creation you will need another bit of your Yarn, (I often use the middle pull center from the ball i am working from to complete the TOE.
We will work this whole area in the partial DC stitch you meaning you will Decrease SEVERAL stitches at once (16DCtogether)
To do this you will be Working several partial Double crochet stitches by yarn over, inserting in the next st, yarn over, drawing a loop through stitch, and then yarn over and draw through 2 loops on the hook, leaving the last loop on stitch while working next stitch, do this for the number of stated times.
Then Yarn over and pull through ALL stitches on the hook.
