Have you thought about Christmas presents yet? Are you planning on crocheting any presents? I am! I’m going to crochet slippers from my friends. After spending ages browsing for a pattern, I couldn’t find one that was just right: so I set about writing one; I’m rather pleased with it, so I thought that I’d share it with you!

I used chunky yarn. The ball band recommended a 6mm hook: but I wanted a snuggly-dense feel to the slippers, so I used a 5.5mm. Really it is up to you, as ever my pattern is just a guideline.

The slippers are really quick to crochet: after a couple of hours I had a pair!

The pattern is written for a ladies UK6 size foot: it is really easy to make it bigger or smaller!

*** Really, really, sorry, there was a mistake on the pattern (quite a biggy). I’ve re-written both the pattern and updated my blog post. I really hope that it works how! If you find there is still a problem, please let me know. I do try really hard when writing patterns not to make mistakes, I check and re-check: but sometimes things do get missed, this was one of those times. ***
