Extra-long folded down cuffs help keep these booties in place on kicking baby feet. All the little sheepy details, like the textured crocheted fabric and little hair tufts, really add extra personality to these adorable little slippers.

The slipper sole is worked with two strands held together at a very tight gauge, resulting in a stiff fabric for the sole. Ears, face, and hair tufts are crocheted separately and then stitched to the bootie. Features are embroidered.
