Barefoot Baby Sandals with Butterfly

I think I could be addicted to these Barefoot Baby Sandals. And the BEST part is it takes all of 10 minutes to make a pair.

I like making them "slip on" so the momma doesn't have to mess with tying them on busy feet. So you slip the foot through the large loop and then the toe through the toe ring and "VOILA" baby has a new pair of shoes!

Sandals made with Bernat's Handicrafter thread .
Butterflies made from #3 Fashion thread.

See  how they can be made to match an outfit?

Sandal and Butterflies made from #3 Fashion Thread

With or without Butterflies is fine.

There is a difference in the sandal sizes
but the butterfly is the same size on both pair of sandals.

Can't you just see a "little piggy" peeking through the toe rings?

The pattern has a photo to go with each step.

Slip-On Barefoot Baby Sandals with Shell

Pin It



The husband and I went shopping for the great-niece this weekend. We found two adorable 1-3 mo outfits . . . one was shorts and a top, the other a skirt and top. Now, I know she probably won't wear them long, but for about $3 each, that works for me.

Her momma likes the barefoot baby sandals. I could not find any for free, so I came up with my own pattern and it's free to anyone who wants it.

I made them very simple, but you could add any embellishments to the top to "fancy" them up.

I made a pretty good match, don't ya think?

In case she has a smaller foot,
I made the strap on the solid color sandals smaller.

These were made to slip the baby's foot through the strap and then slip the toe ring around a toe. Then you don't have to worry about tying them on, or making the ties "just the right length."
