Edging

Round 1: Ch 1, sc in next 4 (4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5) sts, *ch 2, crocheting down the edges, aim for sc in each ch 1 sp and 2 sc in each hdc and ch 2 at each corner**, sc in next 6 sts, rep * one more time, join with a sl st to the beginning chain.

To Assemble

• Place an insole in between 2 soles
• Join yarn with a sl st to any stitch through the soles.

Tips to help make crocheting around easier

1. Secure with either stitch markers or yarn, on both sides of the soles with the insole in the middle.
2. Do not forget to trim the insole if it is too big for your foot to your desired measurement.

With both soles and insole in between them, sc over both sides around.

Fasten off.

Make your insoles non- slip using any of the 10+ methods highlighted in this post.

Repeat the second sole

Section 2 – Upper part

When making the second slipper, flip the second pair when making the upper part, so as to have it as either right or left leg.

If you do not flip the second pair, you end up with the same leg!!!

Count 8 sts on the toes of the sole, place stitch counts

Join CC with a sl st to same stitch as with one of the stitch markers.

Row 1: Ch1, sc in each st across, turn. 8 sc

Row 2: Ch1, (place stitch marker in the ch 1 sp) skip first st, sc in each st across, sc in next 2 sts on the sole, turn. 9 sc

Row 3: Ch1, skip first st, sc in each st across, sc in ch 1 sp from a row below, (move the stitch marker to the ch 1 at the beginning of this row), sc in next 2 sts on the sole, turn. 11 sc

Remove the second stitch marker.

Rows 4 – 7 (7, 7, 9, 9, 9, 9, 11, 11, 13): Rep Row 3.

Stitch counts after Row 7 (7, 7, 9, 9, 9, 9, 11, 11, 13) = 19 (19, 19, 21, 21, 21, 21, 23, 23, 25) sc

Row 8 (8, 8, 10, 10, 10, 10, 12, 12, 14): Ch 1, skip first st, sc in each st across, skip last ch 1 sp from the row below, sc in next st on the sole, turn. 18 (18, 18, 20, 20, 20, 20, 22, 22, 24) sc

Rows 9 (9, 9, 11, 11, 11, 11, 13, 13, 15) – 30: Rep Row 8 (8, 8, 10, 10, 10, 10, 12, 12, 14).

Increase or reduce the number of rows for a comfortable fit.

Fasten off CC, join MC

Crocheting into the remaining sts on the sole

Round 1: Ch 1, sc in each st left on the side of the sole, until you get back to the other side of the sole, continue to the upper part of the slipper, sc in each st around, join with a sl st to the beginning chain. 

Round 2: Ch 1, *sc2tog, sc in next 3 sts, rep from * until the start of the upper part, sc in remaining sts, join with a sl st to the beginning chain. 

 Fasten off.

Rows 2 – 56 (56, 60, 60, 66, 66, 70, 70, 70, 70): Ch 1, sc in each st across, turn. 3 sc

Increase or decrease the repeats for a comfortable wrap across the upper part

Edging

Crocheting around the 4 sides of the strap

Round 1: Ch 1, sc in each st around, join with a sl st to the beginning chain.

Do not fasten off

Secure the strap onto the slipper with 2 stitch markers.

Joining the strap to the upper part of the slipper.

With either a darning needle or crochet hook, carefully join the straps to the slippers (upper part and sole)

Lower end

Ch 1, sl st over both last round of the sole and the edging made around the strap.

Fasten off.

Upper edge

Join MC with yarn needle or crochet, using either mattress stitch or sl st to the upper edge of the strap, with sl st, join both the strap and the upper part together.

Fasten off

Sew in all ends.
