Items needed to add soles:
All purpose Cement Glue (I used Weldwood Cement Glue by DAP products, purchased in the local hardware store)
120 Grit Sandpaper (Not absolutely necessary but it helps)
A pair of cheap flip flops the size of your crochet shoe or one size larger (I suggest you use a plain color vs. polka dots as I did). You can cut off the bottom of the flip flop plugs and glue them into place to cover the holes, I chose not to but it is a good option).
Just a note: The shoe pattern that I have in my etsy shop is a step by step photo tutorial.

Hi, could I use this same method for attaching leather soles to knitted boots? also will it be washable?

[@ScarFanatic]

Hi, I am honestly not sure. Knitted material is thinner than crocheted material. My crocheted soles are doubled therefore the glue will not seep through the material when I add it to the sole. Cement glue is very strong, so it's definitely washable.

Would hot glue work?

[@ScarFanatic]

hot glue is pretty sturdy but I'm not sure how well you can smooth it out on the sole

[@cometkatt]

have read elsewhere that hot glue does not stand up to wear and tear.. one is better off using a stronger glue or contact cement.

Can I use super glue

Nicole Shivers I haven't tried it but it shouldn't be a problem
