Introduction

Make your feet happy…

Look at those poor neglected toes. They deserve to be adorned with the latest crochet accessory: beautiful barefoot sandals.

Happy feet mean happy you, and with the perfect accessory for summer you won’t be able to resist skipping lightly through lush grass, feeling the beach beneath your feet, or rocking that Ibiza hot spot. With eight designs to choose from you can create stunning foot couture to match any occasion. Grace a beach wedding with delicate Ivory Star Flowers, display your festival chic with the Ferris Wheel Mandala design, or flaunt your flower power with a dainty Daisy Chain. Each pattern is small in scale and quick to make, so there’s no need to stop at just one pair.

Remember that with all these little beauties you can add your unique stamp by choosing colours that match your outfit, your mood or your yarn stash. Because they really don’t take much yarn to make, barefoot sandals are the perfect way to use up half balls and leftover bits and pieces.
