Daybreak Espadrilles Crochet Pattern Download

Description

Crocheted hemp twine pairs nicely with beautiful jute espadrille soles to create the perfect summer shoes. This smooth hemp twine has no elasticity, but when worked up in this V-stitch pattern, it has just enough stretch to hug your feet. Wooden beads and fringe give these free-spirited shoes a summer-festival vibe.
