2. hdc2tog: [Yarn over, insert your hook into the next stitch and pull up a loop] 2 times; you get 5 loops on your hook, yarn over and pull through all the 5 loops on your hook.

3. dc2tog: [Yarn over, insert your hook into the next st and pull up a loop, yarn over and draw through two loops] 2 times, yarn over, pull through all the 3 loops on your hook.

Sole Pattern

Tips for sole

1. Count your stitches after every round.

2. At end of each round when the pattern says sl st into the beginning ch 1, you sl stitch into the next

visible st, and when it says sl st into the 1st sc of the round, you skip ch 1 (the next st visible ) and slip st into the next st (the 1st sc).

3. Sole is worked in the round without turning at the end of each round.

4. Working both the left and right soles together will help you get the sandals in the same size. They follow the same pattern.

Make 4 soles as you will need 2 for each sandal.

Joining the two soles together (for all 4 sizes)

Notes:

1. Use the bright color yarn for joining the soles together.

2. Stitch counts are given in the order 0-3 ( 3-6, 6-9, 9-12)months.

2. Overlap 2 soles and sl st starting at the toe side

3. Sl st forms a border

Using F hook for sizes 0-3 and 3-6 months and G hook for bigger sizes, keep two soles one under the other with the wrong sides touching each other, and sl st around them starting from the toe side as shown in pic 2 above. Don’t make your slip stitches too tight as you will have to work into them to make the heel side of the shoe. Tuck all the yarn tails in between the soles before you start slip stitching. See pic 3 above for the finished sole. ————-40 (43, 45, 49)sl sts

Upper

Notes

1. The upper is worked into the contrasting color slip stitches you used to join the two soles together.

2. The upper is also worked in the bright contrasting color.

3. The toe strap is worked as a continuation of the heel side.

0-3 (3-6 months)

Placing Markers before starting Round 1

4. Fold the sole along the long middle line, count back 5 (5, 6, 7) st as shown, and place a marker on each side

5. You will get 10 (10, 12, 14) st marked symmetrically when you open the fold

1. Mark 10 slip stitches on the heel side of the sole. To mark 10 sts symmetrically, fold the sole lengthwise as shown in pic 4 above and count back half the number of stitches, that is 5 st and place the marker. Repeat on the other side. Once you open your fold you will have 10 stitches marked symmetrically as shown in pic 5.

6. The green dot indicates the point where the strap joins the sole, place a marker at the point

7. Marker placed at the green dot

2. Use pic 6 above as a guide and place a marker to indicate the point where the toe strap joins the sole for the right sandal. The toe strap is worked as a continuation of the heel side.

Round 1

8. Start working Round 1 from the marked st as shown

9. Ch 4, skip 4 st and work 2 dc

10. Chain for the toe strap

11. Sl stitch it to the sole at the marked point

Step 1: Using F hook sl st to marked st on the right side and work towards the next marker as shown in pic 8, ch 2 (does not count as a st), 1 dc in same marked st, dc2tog across next 2 sts, 1 dc in next 4 st, dc2tog across next 2 sts, 1 dc in marked st, ch 3 (4), skip 3 (4)sts as shown in pic 9, 1 dc in next 2 sts, Ch 9 (10) for the strap as shown in pic 10, sl st to the point indicated by the marker on the sole by inserting the hook into both the layers of the sole and up again to complete it as shown in pic 11 above. This is the tricky part, so take your time.

12. Work up along the chain and sl st into 3 chs

13. Chain again for strap on the other side

Step 2: Proceed to work back along the chain just made as shown in pic 12 above, sl st into the first 3 chains (this will form the part that goes between the toes), ch 6 (7) for the strap on the right side as seen in pic 13 above.

Note: For step 3 below you might have to hold the loop on your hook with your thumb to work the dc st after the long chain.

Step 3: Skip 20 (21) stitches from the dc you last made and work 1 dc in the next 2 sts, ch 3 (4), Skip 3 (4) sts, sl st to first dc you made into the marked st at the beginning of the round. Do not turn.

14. Working sc into the chain loop

15. Sc2tog when you reach the middle of the toe strap

Round 2: Ch 1, 1 sc in same st, 1 hdc in next st, hdc2tog across next 2 sts, hdc2tog across next 2 sts again, 1 hdc in next, 1 sc in next, now you will have reached the ch-4 loop, 1 sc in each of the 4 chains as shown in pic 14 above, 1 sc into the next 2 dc, 1 sc into the next 5 (6) chains you made for the toe strap, sc2tog in the next 2 chains on either side of the short strap that runs between the toes as shown in pic 15 above, ch 1 to close the sc2tog, 1 sc in next 5 (6) chains ( you will have to twist the chain strap to bring the right side of the chain on top and then work the sc), 1 sc into the next 2 dc, 1 sc into the 4 chains. Do not turn.

Round 3 (partial round worked only on heel side): 1 hdc into the next sc st on the heel side, 1 hdc in next 5 st, sl st to next st; turn.

16. This is how the sandal will look after fastening off.

Round 4 (partial round worked only on heel side): Ch 1, 1 sc in next st, 1 hdc in next 4 st, 1 sc in next, sl st to next st; fasten off. Your sandal will now look like in pic 16.

Upper (Left Sandal)

17. The green dot indicates the point where the strap joins the sole, place a marker at the point

Work exactly the same as the right sandal but when you slip st the chain strap (toe strap) to the sole, do it at the point indicated for Left Sandal in Pic 17 above. You can place a marker at the point before you start working on the left sandal.
