Quirkpod, I have a pattern for "Dorm Boots" that are crocheted and lace up. I can scan the pattern and email it to you. Send me an email with your email address, as I do not know how to send attachments through forum email.

I have a knitted pattern (saved from a 1976 newspaper - and I haven't lost it yet) for Bedroom Booties. Very simple - knit a rectangle, fold centre to centre and sew across bottom to make the toe. Crochet a cord and lace through the opening.

This pattern could very easily be converted to crochet. It's just a matter of crocheting a rectangle to size.

Quite happy to email you a scan of the picture and typed out instructions (the newsprint has faded somewhat and would be hard to read).

you might visit the website craftown.com. They list all kinds of free patterns for knit,crochet crafts

Thank you for the patterns, and I am always willing to see more. I'll be making them very soon for next Xmas gifts. I've been to all of the websites with no luck, but thanks to those who emailed me the patterns. They are simply adorable. I'd enjoy hearing from anyone else who is making them.
