Crocheting sneakers has always been a struggle for a lot of people. That is what inspired me to make this pattern. It is worked in rows, it is so beginner friendly and the final sneakers are so cute. It comes out even cuter when you use gender specific colours. was wondering. The spike detailing makes it resembles footballers sneakers.
The written pdf pattern contains three sizing options. The 0-3 size is written below.
