Cool new boots

Posted on September 11, 2017 by customboots

My apprentice Mallory just finished a new pair of boots for herself. She started these before she came to my shop and she built them all on her own so I can’t take any of the credit. 🙂

I need to have her teach me how to do that cool stitch around the boot above the welt!

Is that a round stitch? It looks like it might be, but I can’t tell for sure from the photo….

  She says it’s a Norwegian construction with a chain stitch.
