Thelma, rounds 9-27 is for the front of the slipper where your toes go inside. So make that part as long or as short as you need it to cover your toes. You can also read some of the older comments on this post, since common questions have already been answered.

I just printed the pattern for Easy ADjustable Slippers and find I have made a bucket instead of a shoe.
How does the item become long instead of round? I completed Rounds 1-8 and had a nice circle, then rounds 9-27 says you can make the slipper as long/short as needed however, if I continue on with 48 single crochets I get a deep round item. What have I missed?

Hey Mary, there are those craft paints that you can use. I forget what they are called, but they are used for decorating T-shirts.

Rachel (or anyone else w/a great idea), What would you put on the bottom of the slipper for a child so that it was not so “slippery” on say a wood or tile floor? I’m making these for my 2 young nieces for their upcoming birthdays but certainly don’t want them slipping & sliding on their tile & wood floors. Would love any ideas!
Thanks,
Mary

Hannah, that gauge for this pattern isn’t that important, so you can use any hook you like! Just remember to follow the instructions to adjust the slipper to the size you want it to be, or else it may not turn out right.

Hi! these look great! But the problem is, i don’t have a 4.00 mm hook. all i have is a 3.75 and a 4.25 mm hook. How do i adjust the gauge and make them to work with a bigger or smaller hook, or is this not possible? Thanks Rachel!

Hey I like the new easy print out pages. Thought i’d try the slippers. I’ve always just knot them by a pattern I learned as a child. I just adyust them by putting them nes to my foot to see if they will fit. Thanks again

Hi Stephanie, you should use the instructions in the pattern to adjust the slipper to fit your foot. “Note: Round 1 – 8 starts the toe of the slipper by creating a circle. For best fit, make sure that the diameter of the circle is slightly smaller than the width of the wearer’s foot. To adjust the circle size, simply add or subtract rounds as needed.” Variances in tension can result in a bigger or smaller circle, even if you do use the same hook size, so be sure to hold the piece up to your foot or use a sizing chart to get the right size.
