Ever since first spying baby shoe patterns in Japanese craft books I've been eager to try making a pair.

I made these for Adelaide yesterday and she wore them today. The pattern fits quite well and they didn't come off her feet.

Instead of doing a button and buttonhole on the strap, I hid a snap fastener under the button. A neat buttonhole is hard to achieve on the narrow strap, so this was a nice, neat alternative.

They are adorable. I got a pattern to make my little girl some but I never got around to it and all of a sudden she is two!
