Crochet Slippers Pattern

Tuesday, November 29, 2011



This project is a suitable project for the cooling weather and carpeted flooring. Customized instructions for a woman's foot size 6 (from the original pattern) below:

Materials:

4-ply yarn (used brown and pink)
5mm crochet hook

Directions:

Round 1: 5 ch (chain stitch);  join into ring with sl st (slip stitch)

Round 2: 3 2 ch;  7 dc (double crochet stitch) into the center of the ring;  join with sl st

Round 3: 3 2 ch;  *(1 dc into next stitch;  2 dc into next stitch); repeat * pattern. join with sl st

Round 4: 3 2 ch;  *(1 dc into next 4 stitches;  2 dc into next stitch); repeat * pattern. join with sl st


Round 5 – 6: (continue crocheting in spiral);  1 dc into each dc. join with sl st

Row 14 7: 3 2 ch;  1 dc into second stitch from hook;  make 20 15 dc (1 dc into each next dc)

Row 813: turn;  3 2 ch;  1 dc into second stitch from hook;  continue 20 15 dc (1 dc into each next dc)


Row 14: turn;  3 2 ch;  1 dc into first stitch from hook;  continue 22 17 dc (1 dc into each next dc); another 1 dc into last stitch

Row 15: turn;  3 2 ch;  1 dc into first stitch from hook;  continue 22 18 dc (1 dc into each next dc); another 1 dc into last stitch


Finish off. Cut off yarn long enough to sew in back using whip stitch. Weave in the ends.

Edging:

1. Tie a yarn of the same or different color to the edge of the slipper using a sl st.
2. Make 2 chain stitches.
3. Then make 1 single crochet into the next bigger (as I call it) ‘hole’.
4. Then make 1 chain stitch.
5. Continue this pattern (1 single crochet stitch; 1 chain stitch) along the edge of your slipper. When you get to the front part, 1 sc each, no chain. Finally, make 1 slip stitch to join with the first stitch.
6. Finish off end weave in the ends.


Crochet Swirls

1. Row: 43 30 ch (ch = chain stitch).
2. Row: 1 dc (dc = double crochet stitch) into the fourth chain stitch from the hook, 1 dc into each remaining chain stitch.
3. Row: 1 ch, 1 sc into the first stitch from the hook, 1 sc in next stitch, 2 sc into next stitch, *1 sc in next stitch, 2 sc in following stitch*, repeat *…* till the end of the row.
4. Row: with a changed yarn color, 2 ch, 1 sc (sc = single crochet stitch) in the first stitch, 1 ch, *1 sc in next stitch, 1 ch*, repeat *…*.
Finish off. Leave enough yarn to sew the flower to shape and attach it to the slipper.

Now twist the strip into a nice shape.
Using a needle and some yarn, sew some stitches in the middle and along the edges only to fixate the whole swirl.
