Working with B color sole on top, sl st around both soles (through both loops of color A and color B). Start in the middle stitch in the heel. When you get all of the way around, make one more sl st in the 1st st to make the seam even looking. Do not finish off.

Star
This star I made by crocheting with Color B directly onto the bootie.
I started in the middle of the boot leg and sl st, ch 1, sl st into a st higher up, ch 1, sl st into original st, ch 1, sl st into a st farther up and to the right, ch 1, sl st into original st, and so on.
After I finished the design, I finished by sewing over my crocheted stitches.
