What a nice, quick slipper pattern. I especially appreciate all the ideas for embellishing the slippers the designer has provided at the end of the pattern. Ive used several of them already, but I am loving those sneaker ties. I never would have thought to go in that direction. Great tip about doubling the standard worsted to make a chunky yarn, too.

This is a very easy pattern to follow and would be a great starter project for a beginner crocheter. When they master the slipper, then they can practice on different ways to embellish a project to make it more appealing and more customized to the person that will be wearing the slipper.

This looks like a quick and easy way to crochet slippers! Some patterns have you make the sole separate from the top and sides, then you have to stitch them all together. That's not bad but this way, all in one piece, is much easier! And a great way to use up leftover yarn from other projects.

Can you guys think about getting the Print Friendly buttons for your patterns please? It is getting really hard to print from your existing print button. By the way Print friendle is free for you to use as well.

Melissa, if you are using Chrome browser then you can install the print friendly extension that will allow you to print any web page as a PDF. I use it all the time.

What a great idea for a gal whom you don't know what to get! I consider myself lucky that I know how to crochet, because I am never at a loss for what I can gift to a friend or an aunt or grandmother. I agree that just using a bulky yarn is the way to go because then you don't have to struggle with keeping the proper tension of two strands together.

These are adorable. But If you aren't comfortable using two yarns held together just get bulky yarn instead. They make some very pretty variegated bulky yarn that would work very well and use a hook one size smaller. I have done that many times and they came out just fine. Thanks for the pattern.

Thanks for the awesome tip mulberrygalprincess s! I almost passed by this one because my ole arthur (arthritis) doesn't make it easy for me to hold two yarns together. Now I'll go yarn shopping for the bulkier yarn and use one size smaller hook. Yippee...warmer toes this winter...for me and maybe others too!

Is there one more chain and turn before you slip stitch the slipper closed at the back?

I made myself a pair in less than 2 hrs I used some leftover yarn from a baby blanket it was verigated and a chunky yarn so I didn't double the yarn these are so soft and warm I just crocheted a tiny length of yarn & tied a bow on the front of my slippers I took a pic i'll put up later. If you need some slippers make these for yourself they are easy & cute!

In the typed version she has nine double crochet, but in the video she states single. I do believe it is single. I just kept going around and not doing as she has directed. Worked out great. I made a pair in an hour. I did use an N hook. I have a size 7 foot and this pattern worked for me. I made one for my husband but in the beginning i made 10 single crochets which came out to 20 for the tube part. His shoe size is 10. Turned out great!!

I have been crocheting for almost 60 years. This is the first time I have ever heard of an M hook. Had to pay through the nose for it. Otherwise this seems to be a really simple pattern, only the written instructions do not say to use the chain one as a stitch.

I noticed written pattern says to start with 9 double crochet and she just starts with single crochet so I'm thinking that's just a misprint? I was trying to count and kept adding a stitch, I'm not sure why. I understand how to make them longer, but how to make the for a wider foot?

How would it work with on strand of yarn?

I have made similar slippers like these and I tried to make them once with only one strand of yarn....it doesn't work, the size comes out way off from what they should be. If I remember correctly, they were way smaller and couldn't be used so I ripped them out.

Enjoyed watching the video, it made it easier for me to make the slippers. This is the pattern my grandmother used when she made all the grandkids slippers every year. We all miss her slippers. I was looking for it. Thank you.

The Pattern says "Size 9 (US M). My size 9 is an 'N' US Boye. Is that the right size hook? Thank You for the Pattern and Video!

This video is great! She explains and demonstrates crocheting slippers very well. Easy to understand (which is good for me, being a beginner), without over-explaining or under-explaining. I'm definately going to try this pattern. Thanks so much! :o)

I really like this pattern. I would suggest you start with a magic circle and when the slipper is done, single crochet around the top---looks much neater. Thanks, Sug.

these slippers look very easy ... but I just don't understand why she would turn the project on the toe area.. having been a crocheter since I was 6, I just don't understand the need to turn... in fact I think I will just work in the round until it comes to the part that you have to turn in the back.

That makes more sense to me, also. There was also a comment about beginning with the magic circle instead of the 2ch, which I like--I can close up the toes better. But the video is great, and I love the easy pattern!

Super easy! Super fast! Super fun to do! The you tube video helps so much...I just sat in front of the computer and did my first pair...have made many already for family. A good way to use up that extra yarn. Thanks I love it!
