Abbreviations:

Ch 11: Begin by chaining 11 stitches. This will form the foundation for the sole of the bootie.
Sc 9 in 2nd ch from hook: Starting from the second chain, work 9 single crochet (sc) stitches across the chain.
Hdc 1 in next stitch: After completing the 9 single crochets, work 1 half double crochet (hdc) into the next stitch.
Dc 1 in last stitch: Work 1 double crochet (dc) into the last stitch of this row.
Dc 1 in first stitch on the other side: Turn your work and begin working along the other side of the chain. Work 1 double crochet (dc) into the first stitch.
Hdc 1 in next stitch: Work 1 half double crochet (hdc) into the next stitch.
Sc 9: Work 9 single crochet (sc) stitches across the remaining stitches along the opposite side of the foundation chain.
Sl st to join: To close the round, slip stitch (sl st) into the first single crochet (sc) of the row.
Now, the sole of the bootie should be round and ready for the sides.

Ch 1 and turn: Chain 1 (ch 1) to begin the next round, and turn your work to crochet along the sides of the sole.
Sc around the edge: Work single crochet (sc) stitches evenly around the edge of the sole, inserting your hook into each stitch along the side.
Place 2 sc in each corner: As you work around the curve of the sole, place 2 single crochet (sc) stitches in each corner stitch to maintain the shape of the bootie.
Sc2tog: If the bootie gets too wide or needs to be slightly tapered, you can use sc2tog (single crochet two together) at specific points to decrease the width. To do this, insert your hook into the first stitch, then into the next stitch, yarn over, and pull through both loops at once.
Sl st to join: Once you’ve crocheted around, slip stitch (sl st) into the first sc to close the round.

Ch 1 and turn: Chain 1 (ch 1) and turn your work to begin the top section of the bootie.
Sc around the edge, working in the back loops only: Work single crochet (sc) stitches all around the top edge of the bootie, making sure to crochet in the back loops only (blo) for a neat edge.
Sl st to join: Once you’ve completed the round, slip stitch (sl st) into the first sc to close the round.

Switch to Ecru Yarn: Cut the pink yarn and attach the ecru yarn to begin the scallop edging.
Ch 3 and dc 3 into next stitch: Chain 3 (ch 3), then work 3 double crochets (dc) into the next stitch to form the first scallop.
Sc 1 into next stitch: Work 1 single crochet (sc) into the next stitch to form the base of the scallop.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 around: Continue the pattern by repeating Ch 3, dc 3, sc 1 into the next stitch around the entire top edge of the bootie.
Sl st to join: Once you have completed the scallops, slip stitch (sl st) into the first stitch of the first scallop to close the round.

Weave in loose ends: Using a yarn needle, weave in any loose ends from the yarn to tidy up your work.
Optional: Add a decorative bow or embellishment: If desired, you can add a small bow, button, or another decorative element to the top of the bootie to finish the look.
