Easy Slipper Socks

By: Rosina Northcott from Zeens and Roger
Easy Slipper Socks

"These quick & easy cosy crochet socks are made out of aran weight yarn, they’ll be comfy in wellies but probably not your posh shoes. Splodge some of that sticky stuff on the soles so that they turn into non-slip slipper socks. Easy to adjust to different sizes, a few choices are given in the pattern. Made from the toe up. Try contrast colours on the toe and heel! It might be best to go for a yarn that isn't 100% wool as they will wear faster. This pattern is written in UK terms. See below for US equivalents."
