Easy Socks/Slippers

Here are some super easy slippers you can whip up in about an hour. Probably less for most people, I have an almost one year old to multi-task and play with. These make for great last minute gift ideas. Also, the featured slippers are made for a small footed woman. To make them for larger sizes, I'll indicate where you should continue on. You may also note that the back looks funny and as though your wee footums couldn't get in there. Trust me, it'll round out with maybe two uses. Jazzing these babies up is also a breeze!

What You'll Need:

A J crochet hook, and the color 

yarn that you prefer in medium

worsted weight. I'm using 

Red Heart's Coffee.

1. Chain 3 and slip stitch to join to

form a ring.

2. Chain 3 and add in 11 more

double crochet (13 total)

3. Chain up 3, double crochet in the 

chain 3 space, 2 double crochet

in every stitch around, slip stitch

to join. (24 in total)

4. Chain up 3, in the next stitch add 

2 double crochet, 1 double crochet

in the next, repeat till the end of the

row, slip stitch to join (36 in total)

5. Chain up 3 and double crochet

into every stitch around, slip stitch

to join. Repeat for 5 rows. On most

feet this will com up to just about

the beginning of the toes. You can

easily keep going for more coverage.

6. Chain up 3, Double crochet

into the next 20 stitches, chain

3, turn, skip the first stitch, and

double crochet in every stitch.

Keep on going until you've reached

the length you need. Aim a little bit 

shy of your heel since you do

require some tightness in order

too keep it on. You may also

add stitches to make the 

bottom piece wider.

7. Now that  you have achieved the

length that you needed, pinch together

the two ends of the slipper. Get your 

hook under both of the top stitches

and pull your yarn through both of

those stitches and slip stitch. Go all

the way down and fasten off, my loves.

And there you have it! Easy, peasy slippers!

Hope you enjoyed the pattern, and as always,

Happy Hooking!
