Knitted booties for newborns. Schemes and descriptions, sizes without seams, how to knit socks, sneakers

Booties without a seam using ordinary knitting needles are comfortable and warm shoes, it is relevant for both a newborn baby and a child who is starting to take his first steps. They tightly fit the leg, while not causing any discomfort, due to the streamlined shape and the absence of seams. Even novice craftswomen can knit such booties according to our master classes.

For knitting baby booties, it is best to use special soft baby yarn. If the threads are quite thin, then it is worth knitting in two additions. When choosing yarn, you also need to consider the time of year for which the product will be intended. For summer models, cotton, linen, thin acrylic will be relevant, for the cold season - acrylic, wool, wool mixture.

For knitting baby booties, in addition to yarn, you will need stocking needles of a suitable size (their diameter should approximately match the thickness of the thread).

In order for the booties to turn out right size, you should first measure the length of the child's foot. The article provides calculations for loops for booties for children from 0 to three months. If the child is older, then the number of loops and the length of the toe should be increased.

Ready-made booties can be decorated as you wish, this will make them beautiful and original. Most often, pompoms, knitted flowers, lace, buttons, appliqués, etc. are used for this purpose.

We knit our product on four knitting needles

This master class will be especially relevant for beginner needlewomen, since such booties are knitted using the very simple pattern and simple technique, so working on them will not take much time. Experienced knitters can take the described knitting principle as a basis, and choose the pattern and decor at their discretion.

To knit seamless booties, you will need yarn (about 50g), a set of stocking needles. The piece is knitted top down on 4 needles.

  1. We collect 36 loops on the knitting needles, distribute them evenly over four knitting needles.
  2. We connect the knitting into a ring, knit 12 rows in a circle with an elastic band (alternate: one front, one purl).
  3. In order to get holes for a braid or lace, we knit the 13th row, alternating two loops together with the front and one yarn. 14-15 rows are knitted with facial loops.
  4. We distribute the loops on the knitting needles according to the following scheme: on the first knitting needle - 11 loops, on the second -7, on the third - 11, on the fourth - 7.
  5. We knit a toe: for this, we knit 11 loops from the third knitting needle separately with stocking stitch in straight and reverse rows (18 rows in total).
  6. Rise: from the edge loops along the edges of the toe, we collect 9 loops, again we knit in a circle with a garter stitch for 10 rows.
  7. Sole: we knit 11 loops from the toe with the front stitch, knitting two loops together at the end of each row (we grab the second from the side knitting needle). As a result, 11 loops remain on two parallel knitting needles in the heel area, we connect them with a needle and thread with a loop-to-loop seam.
  8. Lace: crochet a chain of air loops of the desired length, thread it into the holes on the cuff.

The booties are ready!

These booties are indispensable for walking, and they will also be comfortable for babies taking their first steps on a cool floor.

To knit them, you will need yarn (about 50g), hosiery needles, lace or braid (they must be prepared in advance, as they will be needed at the beginning of work).

Cuff.

We collect 32 loops, distribute them on three knitting needles (9 on the first knitting needle, 14 on the second, 9 on the third).

We knit 4 rows in a circle with an elastic band (1 front loop, 1 purl).

5-8 rows knit facial loops.

9 row: knit 12, knit 2 together, yarn over, knit 4, yarn over, knit 2 together, knit 12.

10 row we knit facial loops. We fold the product in half, put the lace inside, pass its ends through the resulting holes.

We knit the 11th row with the front ones, capturing the corresponding loops of the typesetting edge.

12 row - facial loops.

Mysok.

We knit 14 central loops in straight and reverse rows (16 rows in total) with a braided pattern according to the diagram below. You can choose any other pattern you want.

Climb.

On the left and right side of the toe, we collect 11 loops each, knit 5 rows in a circle with facial loops. 50 sts in total (20, 10, 20 sts on needles). Knit 20 stitches, knit two together, knit 6, knit two together, knit 20.

Heel.

We knit 8 loops from the central knitting needle, knitting two loops together at the end of each row (we grab the second from the side knitting needle). Repeat until there are 4 sts left on the side needles. We turn the product inside out, knit together loops from the first and second knitting needles, closing the heel.

Comfortable shoes for the baby are ready!

A selection of videos on the topic of the article

In conclusion, we suggest watching a video with detailed lessons on knitting booties with knitting needles without seams.


There are many different models of booties for newborns with diagrams and descriptions. The most successful of them are worthy of embodiment for newborn boys and girls. Consider step by step several options for beginners and more experienced craftswomen.

Selection of yarn for booties

Before you get started, it is important to choose yarn and tools. For it is worth paying special attention to the composition and tactile sensations from the threads. To work on booties, you need to choose a yarn of medium thickness. The footage should be about 200-300 meters per 100 g of yarn.

Composition options are:

  1. Cotton. Natural thread with pleasant tactile qualities. A product made of such threads can be put on a baby on a bare foot. But they won't keep you warm in the cold. Cotton can be knitted summer shoes for babies.
  2. Wool or semi-wool. From such threads you will get warm socks or boots for the baby. But they should not be worn on a bare foot, as wool can cause irritation. From wool, you can knit winter booties for newborns.
  3. Acrylic. Today, many yarn manufacturers offer a special series of children's synthetic threads. Acrylic is quite soft and moderately retains heat. Such a product can be put on a child on a bare foot or on a toe. Acrylic products do not lose their original appearance for a long time, do not roll, do not deform.
  4. Wool mixture, any mixed thread has pleasant tactile qualities and is quite warm. In addition, such threads are wear-resistant, thanks to the acrylic included in the composition.
  5. The manufacturer can be chosen according to your taste. More expensive brands of yarn offer high quality threads, soft, hypoallergenic.

Booties are considered one of the first types of shoes that future mothers knit for a baby. They are very practical: because of the soft sole, they do not injure the delicate foot of the baby and keep it warm. Today, there is a very wide variety of booties: these are booties in the form of socks, boots, shoes or sneakers, sneakers or sandals with knitted straps. Also, booties can be made in the form of a lamb or a dog, berries or with lapels. You can decorate such shoes with anything: bows, beads, leaves, flowers, eyes. These are, of course, complex options for booties, but we will analyze easier options, such as, for example, booties without a seam with knitting needles. You can also knit on two knitting needles, but then you have to make that ugly seam that many craftswomen do not like. Let's start knitting!

We stock up on knitting needles

The process of making booties on 4 knitting needles can be traced on the example of a master class.

In order to make such booties, you need to stock up on knitting needles (in the amount of four pieces) and yarn.

Choose softer and lighter pastel colors of yarn. Bright colors most often contain harmful substances and will cause allergies in a child. Also pay attention to the composition of baby yarn. It should consist only of natural fibers: wool, cotton, in extreme cases, acrylic. This master class is suitable for both beginners and experienced craftswomen.

It is necessary to start knitting from the foot: we collect seven loops and we knit the first line from the front loops. We will knit with a shawl stitch. In order to make a foot extension, in even rows, it is necessary to double crochet three times after the first and before the last loop. If we double crochet in the wrong side, then the next step is to knit the front crossed.

Make sure that holes do not form during the knitting process. Those 13 loops that turned out after the increase, we knit another twenty-six rows. Then once we make an increase on the sides and continue to knit. As a result, we should get forty-six rows. In order to shape the sole, we knit two loops together on both sides of the product. There should be seven loops left to cast off.

The next step will be to make a rise and go to work with four spokes. To do this, we need to choose the amount from the edge side and closed loops so that there are 12 loops on the part where the toe is located, and a pair on the sides.

After we have knitted the product, you can proceed to decorate it. To do this, put into work a contrasting thread (so that it is noticeable that this is an ornament) and knit one row. And in the next line, alternate two facial loops together and one crochet. After that, we tie two more rows with facial loops and replace the thread with the main color. Start forming the skin (cloves): while knitting a new row, it is necessary to grab the main thread with each loop that we worked with before we started knitting the border.

If you are just a beginner and do not know how to do this, then we suggest that you sew a border with a needle very simply. After that, we need to knit nine more rows in a circle in garter stitch.

Now we go back to the toe, to those 12 loops that were left. The toe must be knitted in the same way as the heel, namely, on each side we add one loop from adjacent knitting needles, and then we knit two loops together. We work until forty-two loops remain on all the knitting needles.

We work with the lower leg: we knit thirty to thirty-six rows with a garter stitch or an elastic band. Experienced craftswomen can knit with a rice pattern, or you can also enter a contrasting thread and make a couple of stripes.

Well, the last step is to decorate seamless loops on 4 knitting needles for beginners. You can sew on a beautiful button or make pom-poms on the sides. You can also decorate the muzzle of the little animal or crochet a beautiful fold. There are many patterns, it all depends on your imagination and skill.

And also you can see other patterns of seamless booties.

They are the first shoes for the smallest children. Needlewomen knit them in the form of socks or boots, sneakers or shoes, sneakers or sandals with straps.


They come with and without lapels, they can look like berries or dogs, decorated with knitted flowers, leaves, buds, ears, eyes, ruffles, and laces. There are simpler models, and there are complex ones, for experienced craftswomen. According to the method of execution, they are distinguished with a seam and seamless. The first option is knitted on two knitting needles, the second - on four.

Formed on four spokes, they have their advantages:

  1. During wearing, the places of the seams do not rub the delicate skin of the child.
  2. Can be worn from 0 months.
  3. In models for older children, the seams will not press and interfere with movement.
  4. In the process of knitting, you do not need to worry that the joint will turn out to be sloppy, will not stretch and will not sit down when sewing.
  5. Beginners are better off mastering seamless options.
  6. In the process of wearing, the threads will not unravel.

Note! The process of such knitting goes in a circle, so there are no purl rows and there is no mechanism for turning the product. The presence of four knitting needles in the work will not cause great difficulties.

Video: Baby booties

You need to start work from the sole or from the lower leg. The sole is knitted in the usual way - the set goes on two knitting needles, and then work continues on four.

Master class: booties with four knitting needles

Description of the beginning of knitting

Cast on 7 sts for the sole and work the first row in garter st. Extend by adding yarn over three times on even rows after the first and before the last stitch. In the purl rows, yarn over with a crossed front loop (LP) so that no holes form. There are 13 loops on the needles, which knit the next 26 rows. Then make one more increase at the edges, and work until the 46th row. After that, on both sides in the front rows, knit 2 loops together, close the last 7.

Rise: we go out on stocking knitting needles

Select loops from the edge side chains so that there are 12 loops on the front where the toe will be formed, and on the rest - an even number.

Decorate the booties with a scalloped border

Knit a row with a contrasting thread, in the next row, alternate 2 LP and yarn over together. Then knit LP for two more rounds, and replace the yarn with the main one.

Sew the border with a needle, and continue to work 9 rows.

You should get 12 loops for the bootie toe. Tie it on the principle of the heel. Only this part is in work, on each side add one loop to it from adjacent knitting needles, and knit 2 together. Here the wrong side appears, which is done with purl loops (IP). There will be 42 loops left on four knitting needles, of which 12 pieces go to the toe.

Shaft

Work shaft in garter st, rib, or rice pattern for 30-36 rounds. Enter a contrasting thread in several rows.

For a beautiful design, sew on a flower, a button, pompoms, or make a funny face with a nose and eyes.

I used Pekhorka's "Children's Caprice" yarn in 2 threads, knitting needles No. 2.5. Yarn consumption 35gr. Sole length 9-10 cm.
We collect 40 loops, close the circle, knit with an elastic band 1 * 1 to a height of 7 cm (24 circles).

Next, select the central 9 loops, we will knit them with facial ones, the remaining loops, as before, with an elastic band 1 * 1. We knit 1 circle. On the sides of the central part of the booties, we increase 1 loop on each side in each row. We knit the added loops with an elastic band 1 * 1.

We knit 16 circles, as a result, there are 72 loops on the needles.
Next, we knit only the central 9 loops, gradually attaching the remaining (deferred) loops to them. To do this, at the end of the front rows, we knit 2 loops together with the front (9th and 10th loops), and at the end of the wrong rows - 2 loops together with the wrong side.

In order for the sole of the booties to have the desired shape, I knitted 2 loops on each side 2 times, 1 time - 3 loops together. 1st decrease - 2 loops together, 2nd decrease - 2 loops together, 3rd decrease - 3 loops together, 4th decrease - like 1st, etc. Thus, we close 27 loops on each side. There will be 9 central loops and 9 delayed loops. We sew them together with a knitted seam "loop to loop".

The booties are ready! Very comfortable, I knitted these for my children, now I knit them as a gift.
