The Amazing Top Down, No Sew, 8 Row, Bootie Pattern



top down one piece crochet
Another free crochet pattern from Cats-Rockin-Crochet
 Printer Friendly Version Click Here
Introduction: The bootie is made from the cuff down and in the round, then onto a flat row for a bit of shaping, then back into the round to shape it all off. If you can do the stitches explained you can make this and if you want a super quick and easy bootie pattern, this is for you!
The idea behind this pattern was to create a functional bootie that would be quick and easy to make. I am hoping that this pattern will not only reach the beginner, but the many of thousands whom crochet for charity. I am a strong believer in the “Pay It Forward” motto and this is my way of helping those who help others.
