Sandals

[jobean]

I made these sandals from the pattern in Interweave Crochet. I would never have thought I could crochet shoes but I did. So fun.

I've been eyeing this pattern for a while, but I was afraid how they'd feel on your feel. I think you probably lucked out with having smaller twine, I bet they'd feel better that way.

They are great! What a fun project!!!

I like those sandals!

[dreemrytr]

I love those! You did a great job... My question is, how do they fit? AND, HOW do they feel on your feet?

I've started this pattern but haven't finished it. I LOVE what you did with the top! Awesome job. You've inspired me to try something different for the tops of mine!

[knit-errant]

I really like how you did the uppers -- what a neat motif!

 

I've started the pattern, and only have the soles done. I've been experimenting with how to do the uppers; I want something fancier than the ones shown in the magazine. I love your version!

[jobean]

Thanks everyone.

 

I was wondering how they would feel also and after reading this thread where others said it was fine, I saw the jute at Wal-mart for just a little over a dollar so I figured I'd try it. They are surprisingly comfortable and since I'm doing the crocheting I customized them to fit my big feet. I'm actually keeping an eye out for some thicker jute because I'd like them a little heavier and thicker.

I got the jute and all, just need to make them! Yours look fantastic! I like how you did the top part on your own! That's really neat! I have got to put this on my high priority list once my hand is up to crocheting again!

 

So, wearing them, is the sole sturdy enough to wear around or is it just for like the beach???

I love them.

Your's turned out great.

I started mine but had to put them aside to do Mother's day stuff. Hopefully soon I can get back to them.

[DesertCrocheter]

How cool are those? Okay, I'm willing to buy that they're more comfortable than I think they would be, but yea, how do they wear? Are they only for indoors or could you really wear them outside? Patty

[jobean]

I haven't had them long enough to know how they wear. I've worn them around the house and yard.

[mimi_mia]

They look great!!

[Yammy]

I think they're such a great idea...totally crocheted and wearable shoes!

[Roli]

Those are really great!

[KateCrochets]

They look great! I had been eyeing the pattern, as well, and based on your testimonial that they do in fact feel comfortable, I think I'm going to try them!

 

Thanks :-)

[Adri]

Wow those are really original! You did a great job on them!

[unipeg]

Those sandals are so cute! Wonderful job:cheer

[luv2stitch]

Very cute! I love how you adapted the pattern to make it unique. Great job!

[Her]

I love your sandals! I made them too and love them. I got a hole in one of my soles (I also used a thinner jute - doubled) so I don't know if that was a factor or not. I plan to try other types of jute and materials and see how they work out

Great job!
