Ellie The Elephant Baby Booties - Free Crochet Pattern


From watching Dumbo dozens of times to being glued in front of the tv whenever Babar was on, it's fair to assume that I had an obsession with elephants from a young age!
Now you might think 'Ellie' would be an obvious choice for the name of a set of cute little elephants like these, but I actually named them after my sweet sister, Elizabeth, who as a little girl shared my fondness of Dumbo too.

If you love animals but elephants aren't quite your thing, I'm happy to say I also have patterns for a pair of teddy bear baby booties AND a pair of duckling baby booties!

  16. I am having trouble with round 3. I had 40sts at the end of round 2 as per pattern. 12 increases on round 3 are listed, but only 50sts are said to be present at the end of round 3. Is there a mistake on round 3?
    Thank you

  17. I am having trouble on Round 3 of the sole, also. After round 2, there are 36 stitches as stated. But when I finish round 3, I have 49 stitches instead of 46. I have tried it over and over (about 6 times) and always with the same outcome. Also, the smallest (0-6 month) size ends up measuring over 4" instead of #3.5"
