Thanks for the great pattern! Took me a little time to grasp it all but once I’d finished the first pair I was jumping to make the next, and now looking at the wool bag for another pair, or two. These are the only slippers my 92 year old mum can wear now so she is just loving them.

Dawn,
For round 1 – 8: you will be creating the very very tip of the toe of the slipper. It will make a circle shape. Just make sure that the circle is not wider than the width of the wearer’s foot (the distance form your big toe to little toe).

For round 9- 27: you are creating the front of the slipper. It is sort of a tube like shape. You should now have the top and bottom of the front of the slipper since the wearer should now be able to slip their foot into it comfortably. If it does not fit snugly around the foot, then it is too big or if it does not fit on the foot at all, then it is too small.

For row 28 – 43: you are no longer going to crochet in rounds. These rows will continue the bottom of the slipper until it reaches the back of the wearer’s heal. This is were you will stop and sew the back of the slipper up.

I can’t make heads nor tails of this pattern. why begin with rounds? Is the the instep? The sole? I just don’t see how the shape of a circle will turn into anything that resembles a slipper.
Someone tell me which part of the slipper I’m working on for each change.

Carmen, you can start at the top of the slipper and hold the edges of the back of the slipper together. You can whip stitch the edges together, here's a tutorial on that if you need it: How to Whip Stitch in Crochet

Love the slipper pattern but I’m not sure how to stitch the slipper together. Can you please explain how it is to be put together?
Thank you!

So I really wish I could make these. I just started to crochet and I’ve made some really cool stuff but I can’t figure this out. It would be great if you could somehow have pictures with each “step” and just to see if what I have so far is correct, although I’m pretty sure its not correct. The circle starts to look like ruffles…

Hi Ife, when you adjust the number of rounds you’ll also be adjusting the stitch count. For example, if you end up only needing 7 rounds to make the circle the correct size for your foot, you’ll skip to round 9 and do the “sc in each sc around” but you’ll only have 42 single crochets as your stitch count.

The slipper is very cute but I am confused about the adjustments. To adjust you said simple add or subtract rounds. If I subtract rounds how do I still get the 48 sc in round 8?

Amy, you can make a chain as long as you want your strap then do a row of double crochet on top of it. You can use the spaces between the stitches as button holes or you can do a chain and skip a stitch for a button. Have fun with it!

Hello, I am on Ravelry.com and I found this pattern! Super CUTE! By chance do you have a pattern for the strap? If you do that would be great! Thanks!
