Construction:
This hand knit bootie pattern is built to be manipulated. Change the patterns, work with as many colors as you wish!

You will start the Upper in the round and work from the top down. You will then work the Instep and Toe flat, then pick up for the Lower Foot and resume working in the round. Finally, you will work the Sole in the round and make I-cord Shoelaces.

Materials:
This pattern is a great stash buster. You can use multiple types of yarns with thickness variation. Choose yarns suitable for size US2 needles.

COLOR A: Approximately 65 (70, 85) yards required.

COLORS B, C, D, E, F, G: Approx 20-40 yards of each. This is a great way to use your left over bits
of yarn. Dont worry if they are slightly different sizes
