Simple Crochet Slipper Pattern

These slippers are just the job for yoga now that winter is on it’s way.

Size – make them a little smaller than the length of your feet as they stretch

Materials – Approx 160m arran style wool, small amount of eyelash or other oddment wool for the edging, 5mm hook

Instructions

Beginning – Toe – ch 4, join with sl st to form ring

Round 1 – ch 3, 7 dc in ring, join (8)

Round 2 – ch 3, dc in same st, 2 dc in each st, join (16)

Round 3 – ch 3, dc in same st, (dc in next 3 st, 2 dc in next st) around (20)

Round 4 – ch 3, dc in ea st around (20)

Round 5, 6, 7 repeat R4

Round 8 – ch 3, dc in next 19 st, leave last 6 st unworked, turn (14)

Round 9 onwards – ch 3, dc in each st, turn

Continue to work until the length comes down to your heal when stretched.

Fasten off, leave a long tail for sewing the back seam. Fold heal area in half and sew together. Sew in the toe loose end. Turn slipper right side out.

Edging – Working across end of rows, join with sc at heel, sc in end of each dc row, 2 sc in each of the corners at the front. Join with ss at end of first round. Repeat for a 2nd round.

Contrast edging. Join yarn at heel, continue to work as per edging, depending on thickness of your contrast yarn (2 sc may look better if it is a thinner wool or you could do hdc) see what it looks like. I did 2 rows of sc edging using the eyelash wool. Fasten off and thread in ends.
