Baby shoes

Happy Friday, lovely readers. 

A while back, I had some concerns about the baby shoe pattern in my book. I worked with the editors at Stash Books to revise the pattern. It's now easier and faster to make a pair of these little slippers. Thank you for your feedback on the project and I hope you will share your finished project images in the Sweet and Simple Handmade flickr group.

So, you can find the corrections to this design here at C&T's errata page. I feel like it's worth saying, these slippers are not the easiest things in the world to make. They can be a bit tricky and involve a bit of brain-work. But the more pairs you make, the easier they get. I promise.

If you feel like giving these a go, or any of the other patterns in the book, for that matter- (everything else is much simpler to make) – you can find Sweet and Simple Handmade in my etsy shop, felt shop (NZ) or at Stash Books.

It's the weekend! I'm looking forward to a bit of cake-making and herb-planting. Hope you have a good one.

    Hello Melissa! Had to comment as those very shoes above now adorn my little baby’s feet. I saw the familiar picture pop up in my reader and just wanted to say how much we love them. She wears them both sides, we’ve washed and thrown them around and played in the dirt and they are still as lovely as ever. I was even a real trend setter and wore one the way they are above and the other on the pink floral side… A few people commented that I had accidentally put two different shoes on her feet and I couldn’t understand why they couldn’t see just how trendy she was ;);) haha anyway, thank you!

    I have made a pair too, for a friends baby! Yes a lot of brain work, but a gorgeous end result!
